Those are $500 shipped at www.18racing.com

You better call em TODAY if you want them. I saw them, but I didn't think the offset would work for you.

If I were you, I'd buy a set of street wheels and run the R's on the stock wheels.

That would be a LOT easier....and the car wouild look better on a daily basis.

I've thought about it, but the stockers are pretty heavy and an HS car needs all the help it can get. I'd like to find some 18" RX8 wheels for daily driving.

What do they weigh?

If they are anywhere near 15-16 lbs, then you're not going to get much lighter without getting real expensive.

I think it is 21 lbs vs. 14 lbs for the Rotas. The Millenia wheels are 13.5 lbs and I should be able to get 'em for < $50 apiece, but junkyards don't seem to be the easiest places to do business with...

More torque than a CRX, but yeah, that's pretty accurate. ;)

car-part.com was recommended to me, but junkyard folks don't seem to answer phones, return calls, return emails, etc.

They are probably members of the PCA.

Probably. You should call all the other junkyards and make them aware that they should stand by the phone just in case you call one of them.
