WTB: 18x8 wheels (Rx-8 size)

Looking to buy a set of 18x8 wheels:
50mm offset,
67.1mm center bore,
5x4.5 (114.3mm) bolt pattern.

I believe these are the specs, pulled from the internet. I haven't had a chance to measure them yet, just got the car. These are stock size Rx8 wheels. If you have anything laying around I'm interested.

Thanks,
Freddie.

Interesting item on their web site:
New! Closed-End Racing Lug Nut(Aluminum Type)

...provides an average 52% weight reduction compared to conventional steel lug nuts. (only weigh 22grams vs. 44grams avg steel per their own claims)

- Not recommend using... actual competition use.

Racing Lug nut... not for actual competition use!

Wow you saved less than 1/5 lbs per corner, but then you can't go race!

Hey Jeff, I Pm'd you about the wheels. I am interested, but not sure if you got it.

Marc, if the wheels fall through with Jeff do I order them through you or one of your distributors?
