Got my wheel adapters for the RX8 wheels

[REG CAB X]

They came in the mail while I was on vacation. I bought these from a guy in california that makes hub centric adapters. He does awesome work and is very knowledgable about what he does. The spacers are 1.25inches thick and have a hub bore to fit snug on the tacoma hub. Then the front of the spacer is also hub centric and the Mazda wheels fit snug on the adapter. This is a far better way of making adapters and eliminates relying on the lugnuts to center everything up. Here are afew pics of the wheels mounted with the adapters. Also there are a couple pics showing how they fit on the hub and inside the wheel. Also notice the Mazda emblems are gone. I am dropping the wheels off tomorrow for powder coating.

The orignal price for standard adapters from this guy is $35 a piece, but since I had him make them hub centric on both sides of the adapter it was $60 a piece and he threw in free lugs and he paid for shipping.

Yes it is going to look pretty close to this PS I did.

sorry to say but this post is 2 years old. There is a guy on Toyotanation running rx8s on a base model though, might want to get ahold of him and see what he did.
