X-Man Rim package

Not that I'm all into the X-man movie or anything. But I kind of have a thing for the rims that are going to be on the RX-8 in the new X-man movie. Maybe they should come up with a package with those rims. Does anyone know what rims those are? Also are there any rims that are like those available?

Thanks

do you have a picture of cyclop's 8?

from there we might be able to determine if the rims are available..


also do you remember the wheels on professor x's wheelchair near the beginning? They looked so cool! i wanted to get rims like that at one point...

I want some 190 spoke wheels like the nappy roots and outkast talk about having on their caddy's. Either that or some spinners. Mazda could be the first manufacturer to put those out stock.

OR...

btw, I recall seeing someone with the X rims as their member icon, but I haven't seen any pics on the X car and have looked a little bit for it.

I didn't know there was even a clear pic of the xmen 8. The only time i have seen it was in the trailer and that was like 2 seconds.

professor X's wheels on his wheelchair in the first one look better than those ones.

These rims will be on my RX-8 :D
waaay better looking...


I do like the colour of the X-men RX-8 though. They should make this colour available too, together with seats in black leather and gray leather inserts...

I've actually seen THE car when I was in Japan back in the late spring. The X-Men2 movie had just come out there that weekend and they had the car and a big Mazda PR event set up outside a mall in Yokohama (just outside Tokyo). Personally, the 5-spokes on the production cars do much more justice in my opinion.

If you'll excuse me, I'll now duck to don some flame-resistant outerwear.

Those four spokes look VERY similar to the wheels used on the 1st generation RX-7. Check the sig.
