Just got these for my 8

I can't wait to put them on! Come on weather!!!! Side note, these are three peice wheels, the rivets are real :6f1d77c8:

I will be taking the rubber off of these and wrapping them in new tires I have had set a side for a while now. Two of the tires have tons of tread left if anyone is in need of them, otherwise I was just going to trade them in at Performance for the labor of installing the new tires. I will also be installing new TPMS sensors and these wheels currently have some tuner valve stems that I won't need anymore.

What wheels are those? I can't quite make out the name on the spokes. Offset?

They look good.

I think those are Racing Hearts. But I don't recognize them.

Pretty cool wheels. Although, for whatever reason, I don't like when the wheel covers up the lug nuts.

They're 18" Racing Hart CR's. 44mm off set but I can stagger them I see fit. Yay 3 peice!

As for the center caps covering up the lugs, I can understand that but these wheels are universal 5 lug and some 4's, I don't want all of those holes showing.

Nice!

Thanks

Hey I am going to put my tuner valve stems up on craigslist. Anyone know if they are worth anything? I just don't need them because of the TPMS sensors.

Good choice! THose look good.

Minus the really ugly kit and the fact that my car is red, this is what an 8 looks like with these wheels.

Cool, I like 'em. It'll be cool to actually see them on your car though. That RB kit is really ugly.

RB kit makes the car look like a snake`

Postby **RX-7 Chris** » Thu Mar 06, 2008 9:14

True, it does.

Yeah that RB kits is truly heinous but I couldn't get passed how good those wheels looked on an 8 and I had to find them. God I love the internet, they have been out of production for over 2 years now and usually go for about $2400. I got them slightly used for $600.

Figure I'll have them on my car in a couple of weeks, when I feel more confident it isn't going to snow much more, the performance tires I have would turn my car into a sled in the snow. It's killing me too, I so want to put them on!

Those looke really nice.

That kit doesn't do much to help it though.The R-Magic kit kinda looks like a snake too. Very strange.

Wheels do look good, but I'm in the monority. I think the kit looks decent.

Just got these for my 8
