I've searched and I can't find it.
I can't say I am a huge fan of the MS3 wheels and I'm sure picking up some OEM RX8 wheels on ebay won't be a problem. Does anyone have any pics of this set-up?

I know a guy on here posted a pic of RX8 wheels on his Cosmic Blue MS3.

I plan on using those for winter rims/tires. Dead sexy.

I bought a set of RX-8 wheels off ebay in Jan for 400 shipped and still haven't put tires on them yet. Let me know what tires you get if you end up getting the wheels. I've been thing Eagle F1's. But I'm open to ideas.

I'm thinking about picking some RX8 wheels up too if I can find some cheap.. 400 shipped is a steal!!
I'll probably have them powdercoated though...

I found a decent pic. IMO its a nice improvement over stock. I don't know what these wheels weigh but I would think Mazda wouldn't hinder the RX8 with heavy wheels.

i do like the rx8 wheels on the MS3 but i also do like the stock MS3 wheels. Personally, the only reason why i would change them is to drop some unsprung weight. So what does the factory RX8 wheel way compared to the MS3 wheel

i believe they're only 2-3 lbs lighter.

yeah thats kind what i figured. So IMHO, just not worth it unless you are going mainly for cosmetics

These are Chrome Rx-8 rims on my MS3 - Stock suspension with 215/45-18 MS3 stock tires. When these wear out I plan on getting 225/45-18 tires. No rubbing and fitment is perfect.

the rx8 wheels seem to work best with silver, almost like they were made just for that car.
