thanks for the reply guys... I guess I don't want them that bad lol... I will settle with RPO3s

 

^haha

 

dang 7k for some mags rims look tight..... but not 7k tight

 

yeah maybe 1200 tight max

 

wow lol... I'd hope they come with a lifetime warranty

 

Yes, when you buckle a rim someone from the factory comes out + shoots you....

MSRP US$1685 each, thanks for the link

Surprised they only have the one choice of Color....

Well it's just like the new 2009 R3 gunmetal gray rims. You can special order them through the stealership at a special low price of 1200 a wheel!

 

My thoughts exactly....

 

the picture he posted was of the mag wheels. he said, "where can i get these rims in gold."

that would mean, "where can i get these insanely expensive made for mazdaspeed by rays engineering magnesium ms-01 rims in gold?"

 

^HAHA YEAH lifetime warranty and free tires and gas for life!!!

 

"Anyone know where I can find a set of four Gunmetal Gray Mazdaspeed RX8 Rims? I've been looking but they don't have the color I'm looking for on the Mazdaspeed website. They are all Gold. I'm looking for this:" (Picture of Gunmetal Gray Rims)

:P I said all they have on the mazdaspeed site was gold. I was looking for some affordable Gunmetal gray rims like the one in the picture I "originally" posted.

 

I like these MazdaSpeed rims at JapanParts better. Pricey as well tho':

JapanParts has the other rims being discussed as well.

 

dear god these are expensive. idk why? all they are is enkei ev5s with a gold paintjob and a mazdaspeed logo slapped on one of the spokes! id much rather just buy the normal enkeis and powdercoat them that gold color itd be about 5k cheaper!

 

I "settled" for RP03's myself. Just couldn't justify the expense of the Mazdaspeed (non-Mag), or similar Advan T5's.

The Mag's are silly expensive and were never a consideration for me.

 

It's all in the wheels ppl, MPS 3/6 gets turbo but the MPS 8 gets the ultra super duper featherweight wheels that more than outweigh the power of turbos. This is the secret of the MPS 8, not many realise coz not many get these wheels. Did I mention I like pie?

 

Tear out the back seat, carbon fiber hood, doors and everywhere else you can, aluminum Cat-back exhaust, and Mag wheels and then you don't need a Turbo.

 

old thread !

but ...

I got those wheels like a year something 2 ago

it was like 2K shipped. not so bad IMO caught it when they were doing specials

 

dibs!

 

Have them on my Mazdaspeed rx8. Alloys are gunmetal. I love em but, aesthetically speaking, l think stock wheels are better.

 

I didn't know they made a special MazdaSpeed Rx-8 Trim level, what year is that I would LOVE to pick one up too.

ALSO, good job rezzing a 5 y.o. thread.
