R3 Wheels--zomg it's teh sex

Alright does anyone other then myself find themselves obsessed with these rims?




The blue Rx-8 doesn't do it justice but I saw these on a black r3 rx-8 at the mazda dealership last sunday at Mazdapalooza and I fell in love with these things. I want a set for my FD...

i needed to picture it....you're right, they are pretty nice for a stock rim.

I need a little more though myself...i like a little lip but they are cool none the less

Not bad lookin' at all, I'd drive that RX-8. Not sure they'd look right on my FD though.

They're like a better looking TSW Venom...



... which isn't saying much. The above pic is by far the best looking application of the Venom.

Those rims are pretty sweet! Idk if they would look good on the older rx7's though...
