It makes it looked like a badly designed 8 - sort of deformed...

Saw a lovely set of chromed 5 points on a red 8 with all the silverware at SLO - Valley Mazda - Now Mom wants some but then she also wants rhinestone frames for the plates...

Honestly, folks.. the 8's wheels have been seen before, long, long ago...
They were the Cragar S/S. Our wheels are toony versions of those. Ours look better and won't rust/pit, either![Wink](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
The rx-8's wheels were one of the 'eye-grabbers' for me. Hot Wheels indeed! Reminds me of a Big Wheel, too...

I hate that car. There's a Dodge dealer here in KC that has 9 of those nasty *** yellow monstrosities on their lot. I'm sure they told Dodge "sure we'll take as many as you'll give us" when they ordered them and then when they got there they were like OMGWTFHI2UBBQ...

They look too boxy and hard like a bad hybrid between an 8 and a Hummer - they look like they might be made for sport, but they don't shout sportscar! Do they have anything under the hood that would be worth a peak?

Could probably take any single appearance portion of a car and match it to another car. However when put together they look nothing like each other. And wheels! OMG all wheels have the same basic design, so don't even try to compare different wheels of cars.
