What do you thing this would look like on a Black 8?

 

I think if you were looking for a clean wheel to compliment your 8 then they would be a good choice, clean lines and not too busy. However if you were going after a track wheel or tuner look they might not be the best choice.

 

"clean wheel to compliment your 8"

exactly what im looking for! thanks for the response.

 

looks like a nice looking wheel.. how much are they going to cost you?

 

$1980 delivered with tires

19x8F 40mm offset
19x9.5R 42mm offset

245/35's and 275/30's

 

wow, very nice price with tires.. what kind of tires are they? are the wheels TPMS compatible? Also, did they ship mounted and balanced?

 

Those wheels are very, very nice!! I have the same Q's as philodox...do they support TPMS etc. Also where are you buying them from?

I haven't had a chance to ask about the Sensors but the tires are Nitto (yes, balanced and mounted). I only drive 9k miles a year (or less) and i dont race so im not terribly concerned about upgrading the tires.

So far the sensors have simply startled me. I almost spilled my coffee the first time it beeped. I was like "holy shi*, what was that?". If they don't fit im not losing any sleep over it.

I'm ordering them tomorrow but will of course post pix when theyre installed. I think ive looked at every rim option but settled on these. It was these or Axis Hiro's or the Ggames Wolf 77's. All look great but these so far are unique.

 

Can't wait for the pix Dslaughter...your 8 is going to look amazing!!

Where are you getting them from?

ive never used them but my brother has ordered 2 sets of rims for his Miata and has been extremely pleased.

i have TSW on my miata and have had no complaints.

 

Thx Irish. im just hoping to look half as good as FE3P (black on black on black)

I think they are ok
but kinda plain

 

Ya kinda plain, but they would look ok.

TSW does make some nice looking wheels for a decent price, but not a fan of that split 5 spoke look

 

ive never been a fan of the split look either but for some reason these agree with me

thx for the input

 

dont like them. they kinda look like the stock wheel on the new mustangs....

 

They look ok--ironically I just finished looking at them at TSW's website right before I stopped back by rx8club.com--they will work on the 8.

 

they're on order so im hoping so!

 

If you decide to put in the TPMS sensors, you'll have to reballance. Seems crazy not to in a vehicle without a spare, IMO.

 

Since i was told they do accept the TPMS I will be doing so

 

Nope sorry. Looks like an aftermarket rim from a Grand Am.

 

Very harsh!! Have some imagination!! Dslaughter...can't wait for the pix. I think your 8 is going to look amazing!!

they'd look good.
attach a pic of your car and ask nicely.... someone must be kind enough to photoshop it for you....

 

tried that already but nobody was up to the challenge. its a black 8 if anyone cares to try.

they get here on Monday so ill just have to wait. thats cool though, they'll look better in person

they should match the car nicely. look for some pix next week as long as i don't have to roll the fenders

 

I had to laugh at the Grand Am and Mustang comment. Actually I went to ford.com & pontiac.com (vomit bag in hand) to make sure I was indeed still sane. I am, very much so.

But i fully appreciate everyones honesty. That is why i asked for honest opinions.

After i post pix im sure illl see an apology from Dankgummy & especially Jogumby

 

I'm really curious to see what your 8 will look like. post pics asap...
