Hi everyone, I have a few questions about the why 8. Are the earsocks and temple rubber pieces interchangeable with any other oakley model? Also, does anyone know what series these are from, are they x metal?
 
Not x metal. But kind of a cool style. Wish I could help you with your other questions. Someone will know.

Should be interchangeable with the WHY 3.0 series...........not too sure about the colours of the O-matter being matches though...

The nose pads and earsocks of the Why 3 are quite different from the corresponding parts of the Why 8.
The temple shocks may be interchangeable.
I'm not aware of any O-matter on either the Why 3 or the Why 8.
 
Here's Oakley's blurb about the Why 8 when it was introduced in 2004:
Oakley.com said:
Maximize your field of vision with open-edge lenses made of optically pure Plutonite®. The rimless architecture minimizes weight with durable C-5 alloy, a proprietary blend of five metal compounds. Sleek linear earstems are augmented with Unobtainium® to maintain a secure, comfortable fit. Patented XYZ Optics® maintains clarity at all angles of vision while optional Iridium® lens coatings cut glare and boost contrast.
 
Does anyone know if the the earsocks or temple shocks interchange with other models?
I bought a few used pairs recently and I'd like to get some red pieces for one pair and I need replacement pieces for another pair.
