RX-8 OEM Rims

I am having a small trailer custom built to pair up with the 8. My goal is to make it look like a "mini me" of the rear of the 8 - lights, lower bumper, etc. The big stumbling block right now is finding 16" rims that look like the stock 18" rims. I know I could change to an aftermarket, but I just had them chromed...

The other issue is figuring out how to get a hitch installed that won't drag the ground. I already have installed/customized the Derwankle foglight, so going through the rear rotor is out...

Thanks in advance,
Tim - Roxy's pit crew...

Mazda6 and 3 wheels look similar. Actually the 8 stock auto 16" looks somewhat similar. I can't wait to see the finished results.

What's the purpose of the trailer? Agree with RA-Eight, Mazda 3 wheels. Can't wait to see the finished product!
