    I was looking at a similar style with the red rim in the inner rim but only comes in 17" rims at Bob Jane Chermside. Thinking about it because I can buy the used racing tyres off the Grand Prix race car for days out at Qld Raceway..... I haven't priced them yet yet to decide.

    Ditto :-) I think you'll find they are a high-tech MAT cast process, not forged...but they match forged wheels in strength.
    But they are awesomely light and strong, I believe that's also due to the geometry of the wheel design - double lip with shorter spokes and the cylindrical inner lip adding rigidity. equalateral triangles and paralell spokes also add rigidity. It's a function over form design.

    ah yes, I had read that when I bought them but had forgotten.

    I wanted a more road-compliant softer ride and lighter tyre/rim. The entire wheel (with tyre) is now 4kg lighter than the stock wheel. Also a benefit is the lower cost of the tyres (215/50/17).

    Started with these RX-8 rims:






    ...then these XHP Jet Blacks (decided I didn't like the look - too plain):






    ...the latest evolution involved going back to the RX-8 rims and painting them a dark metallic grey. The rims looks black in the photos but are in fact quite a bit lighter. Very happy with this look, but v disappointed about the stone chips appearing on them already No more rally-style driving on the gravel roads around the farm; have to keep it under 30km/h on unsealed roads to prevent more chipping...
