Need rims for Galaxy grey. what color?

Hey guys, I know I should be original about picking after market rims for my car but I'd rather see pics of the rim on the car to see whether I like it or not. Any pics of galaxy grey with new rims would be appreciated. thks

thanks for the input so far. I went to the tire rack and tried out some rims but it doesnt really give the same effect that a picture would. like the oz prodrive rims found on the pz in europe.

Mine's on page 20 on this thread....I had the silver piaa super rozzas. You can also look at all the ti-grays on that threat to get ideas.

I think the color effect you're looking for is something close to what I have: https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...5&postcount=23

My wheels are the WedsSport TC005s that are now discontinued, but there might still be some stock left somewhere. For something a little similar, the WedsSport SA70 in gray has the same color, but looks more like the Prodrive wheels as it's a 9 straight spoke design. Unfortunately that wheel has also been discontinued, but just like the TC005s there might be stock somewhere. This WedsSport gray color matches the Galaxy Gray very well; as long as it's not in direct bright sunlight, the wheels look like they're the same color as the car.

Good luck, and if you're really out of luck, I might be willing to part with my own wheels (no flaws, 18x8 42mm offset) at the right price as I'm considering something a little wider even though I love the look.

Hey kids. What do you all think about dark gold or bronze rims? Too daring or Subaru-ish?

Why don't you just buy the Prodrive wheels. Model is GC-010E. They are made by Prodrive, not O.Z.
