Mazda Speed Wheels

Has anyone looked into these wheels?
http://www.corksport.com/cgi-bin/tes...=mswheels.html
Corksport sells them, although I'm not sure if they'll fit. They are $1350, and I'm assuming that is for four wheels. I hope its for four at least.... They are on the white mazda speed protege I saw somewhere and liked em....

Ohh.. nice, someone does import them...
Figures I should have checked the Corksport site before anywhere else *duh*.
It would be nicer if anywhere in Canada could get ahold of these but not likely ... :|
16x7 = $1223 USD = $1940 CDN

if those are in fact the wheels that Mazda is going to supply on the MazdaSpeed...they are Racing Hearts....I saw the car up close and personal last weekend at the Houston Auto Show. So, if they fit on the MazdaSpeed Pro....they SHOULD fit on our cars...at least I would think so.

They aren't from THE Mazdaspeed protege, they are from a previously modified protege. It was white with the mazdaspeed "body kit". You can see the front of it under the exterior section on corksports site. I am going to call corksport to find out more information on them....

They're from the Sport 20/Familia S-Wagon A-Spec Touring Kit...

The Volk Racing website seems to be screwed up but they have the specs on the wheels there since they're made by Rays.

No problem
I'm going to call the Rays dealer in my area and see if they'd be able to get those wheels through Rays since they already carry the Volk line of wheels.

I don't particularly feel like paying US dollars and shipping and whatever other border charges of the day if I don't have to.

Also, I wasn't aware that Mazda Motorsports sold these wheels.
Seeing as they aren't listed anywhere on the site and nothing comes up when I do a search.

Just curious ... you said get them through Mazda Motorsports ...
Could you direct me to the area of their website where I can find info about ordering the wheels from them?

I am still comtemplating ordering these but an unsure because I really wanted 18". For the price of the 4 mazdaspeed wheels, I can get 4 18" Subzeros and Tires from Rishie. How much are those by the way Rishie with Kuhmo 712s?

actually, like someone posted above, Mazdaspeed throws their name on them, after they have Ray's make 'em. Does anybody know their weight? I can't find it and for some reason the Japanesse sites don't ask me to translate them anymore.

The full details used to be posted on volkracing.co.jp but that site is completely fucked up now .. has been for about three weeks now.

I think it was probably like 16 lbs or something. They are pretty light. And it's a wicked deal for those wheels if you live in the US ... exchange rate kills me, being in Canada of course there are no alternative shops to get those wheels from either .. only Corksport.
