looks like you need to drop half an inch more and maybe some spacers as your tires are tucked in..but pretty much it is the same style that I want but in gunmetal or bronze burst..i think these kind of wheels look good on any car..it is the first wheel i bought for my rx8..whats your specs? how wide is your rear?

Pass. In all reality, it really is better to cry once and buy once. Most wheels under the $1K price will only cheapen the look of the Z. Never skimp on wheels and most of all, tires.

No, I do not. I prefer to stay stock height. I have exactly the look I wanted. They are only 3mm off flush.

My specs will not work for you, as you are on a lowered suspension.

Allow me to digress but that is an awful paint scheme on the RX8.

Back on topic. Unless your mind is set and not flexible with your budget, you'll need more funds for wheels. Tires should also be accounted for.

You need to get these wheels. These are $4000 new.

I'm running 20mm front 25mm rear. Do you think going for 19x8.75 +15 front and 19x10.75 rear +15 will be similar as the pics below? im going for the xxr 530 chromium black. If there another manufacturers that make these kind of wheels let me know..i wont spend no more than $1k

I've got 17" XXR 530's matte black on my Eclipse. I've had no issues with them at alI (except being on the heavy side)I paid $94.00 a piece for them. They are a fine budget wheel. That being said, the stock sport wheel or nismo wheel look better and I'm sure are a better wheel. I personally wouldn't put them on my z.
