rx-8 18" rims

who else here loves the stock rims on the rx-8? i think they're absolutely beautiful and go along great with the car (especially in red).

i'd like to hear everyone's opinions on it, and if you're switching it with another, what kind? thanks

at first glance i thought they looked pretty average, but upon closer inspection in close up photos, they look great, especially at 3/4 degree angles...i especially like how the spokes recess inward at the center and how the they don't recess inward at the outer edge...i do wish that there were some bolts or fake bolts on the outer rim to make it seem like a 2- or 3-piece

I think they kinda look like machete blades- really pretty nice looking. We'll keep them for a while at least.
