Those really are OEM rims though, you can see them in the RX-7 Yamaguchi book.

Personally, I think any rims painted to mach a light colored car are pure crap...colors like black/white/gray to match the car are fine, but when its purple, red, yellow, orange, blue and all that crap, its so tacky

Looks like the plastic discs from those old school little sci-fi guns.

Those rims make the car look like a total TOY!
And for God's sake, you'd have thought he'd have cleaned the engine bay up a bit!
