    i actually dont mind the new mps3 rims on the 6. even in the original colour. These look nicer on the 6 than the old mps3 rims

    much prefer the Gen1 wheels for 3MPS

    If i was going to put wheels on the 6MPS...maybe the real deal RX-8 GT wheels...not those cheap copies they have on the new MPS

    Happy Motoring

    You need photoshop, but there are other less expensive programs that can produce a similar end result, very basically I copy a wheel from another pic, resize, change perspective etc and then paste it on the new pic. I'm not to good with changing colours etc but a basic chop is not too difficult!

    RX8 GT rims are 19x8
    MPS 3 Gen I 18 x 7.0 (like MPS 6)
    MPS 3 Gen II 18 x 7.5

    and some more examples

    RX8GT rims



    MPS 3 Gen I rims (not sure if they're shadow chrome as I got these off Tall Dan's pic and can't remember what he had!)



    MPS Gen I with RX8 GT rims (Thanks TallDan)

    R36 - Just like an MPS6 except with a growly V6
