Steel wheels
Not sure if anyone has done this or got pics (I can’t find any), but has anyone put a smart set of steels on their rx8? Looking at different looks and found some 4x4 steelies but not sure if can put some normal tyres on?

Re: Steel wheels
You'll have issue with brake clearance on most steelies

Re: Steel wheels
I don't know if "smart" and "steelies" go in the same sentence together, but that might just be me hah!Stokesyjnr wrote: ↑Thu Apr 15, 2021 7:28 pmNot sure if anyone has done this or got pics (I can’t find any), but has anyone put a smart set of steels on their rx8?

Re: Steel wheels
Might be easier with (most) JDM imports, as the front discs are smaller and they only came with 16" alloys as standard.
