No I wasn't being sarcastic. Any OZ or Breyton wheels I ever looked at were quite expensive.

Were those things painted with a paintbrush?

it does look that way but i think its the paint itself. it has this weird abrasive feeling. im gonna repaint the wheels purple or turquoise

I know what they LOOK like but the oval holes in the ends of the spokes are throwing me off.

Ahhh, purple or turqoise. Why not just do purple and green and do a kinda Joker theme? lol

I thought about the purple and green but a lot of people already have that scheme. Purple or turquoise rims just look better imo. But ill be painting it turquoise more than likely

19's come stock on the R3 and thats about as big as i would go. With those it looks like theres barely any room in there

That's what I'd do, get some R3 wheels and some spacers. WOOT!

^That's a good idea Eric, but R3 wheels are stupid rare and go for around $2k a set USED! It's stupid! New from Mazda I think they're $3500 a set without tires!

Yikes. I had no idea they were that expensive. Guess you'll have to steal them OP lol.

Yeah they are pricey. I want a set but oh well. I think a set just went on RX8Club for like 2k.

They are BBS inspried if i remember correctly so you might be able to find a similar rim through them.

Not to sure about that. Is all I know is they had similar wheels on the CX-7 when they came out. I wanted those but they were probably heavy. Then they came out with a sharper design on the Gen2 8.
