Anyone running the Stock 18's that came on the Rx-8.
If so, were there any problems with them on a Stock MS6?

You won't have any problems. The RX8 wheels are a different offset so they'll be out further but it looks much better.http://www.geocities.com/lbvsvt/CARSTUFF/EibachsFalkens1cropped.jpg

yeah, didn't think there would be too many problems, but since they were wider, was making sure about the rolling the fenders and stuff.

So thanx man

I had a set of RX-8s on my Mazda3. They were custom painted a gunmetal color. On trade in I kept the RX-8 wheels and put them on the Speed6 for a test fit. They looked small on the Speed6 and I took them off immediately... Sold them a few days later.....

Got a set painted a few days ago, still looking for some tires then I will put them on. Black mica and they are painted Dark Spirell Grey Metallic. Might be too off the wall for a color difference, but its has look good on all my 3rd gen rx7's I have put them on so we will see. I will post up when mounted. God bless
