    Default [Brisbane] Series 1 RX8 wheels $450

    I've had these for sale before on here, time to put them up again at a reduced price. I want these gone from my garage!

    Item: 4 x RX8 wheels (Series 1) 18x8 +50, 5x114.3, 67.1mm hub. Fits all Mazda 3, 6 etc.
    Location: Brisbane (Coorparoo)
    Item Condition: Good
    Reason for selling: Don't have a Mazda anymore and these are taking up space in the garage.
    Price and price conditions: $450, willing to listen to reasonable offers. More likely to accept a lower offer if you're picking them up and I don't have to package them for freight. Will do a direct swap for a set of rims at similar spec and condition to fit a Mk5 or Mk6 VW Golf, or a genuine Ross-Tech VAGCOM VCDS cable + carton of good beer my way.
    Extra Info: One rim has a fair bit of rash, the others are in good condition with minor marks. They will clean up nicely. Great budget wheel upgrade for a Gen1 3MPS or 6MPS owner.

    Throw me offers. My garage is full and these are useless on a VW GTI.

    At $450 this is a very good buy.

    I paid $400 for a set but they have very bad gutter rash on all 4

    Oh, and Shinka shadow chrome FTMFW!......This is how mine will end up looking

    I had offered to ship them to a Melbourne-based member for $450, if paying by PayPal $460.

    I haven't heard back so I'm happy to stand by this offer for other OzMPS'ers within major centres on the east coast (subject to shipping quote). These rims need a clean up and they do have some rash, but they would be excellent candidates for refinishing in your choice of colour and the rash would be able to be sorted out during this process.

    Yep, the performance difference due to the lighter rims is quite noticeable! They're a great upgrade.

    Dan's giving these away at this price.

    The best $450 you'll spend on your
    MPS. I paid $700 for mine and am still glad I got them. They look better than they do on RX8's and the extra 1" width pays for itself

    These are mine:

    Could you please provide some pictures of the gutter rashed rims? What would I expect to pay to have these rims cleaned up?

    See links in previous posts for pictures of the rims and I'm not sure on what you would pay to fix them although it's not that bad and you could do it yourself if you were handy.
