theyre not intended to be swastikas. dont be ignorant.
theyre just a little bit too liberal as far as styling goes and too small IMO.

I don't think the wheels go well with the clean style of the rx8.

Those wheels remind me of those pictures that look normal for a second and then you realize something doesn't quite add up.

I don't think they are terrible, they are different, thats for sure. I bet it would look better with an aggressive body kit.

I don't think they're that bad, they just don't go well with the stock, base body style. If you had a stylish, curvy body kit they might match better. Tinting the windows wouldn't hurt either. Two-tone wheels usually work better when one of the colors is also in the body paint scheme. Just my 2 cents
