NO springs drop that low...

On the contrary, I do a homemade job that will lower your car by approximately 3.2F and 2.5R. I don't even need to remove your springs. For $200 I'll take a hacksaw and two jackstands and get busy. Most of my experience is with Civics and Accords but I'm sure the RX-8 isn't all that different.

Dude I have them springs on my 8 for over a year with no probs no rubbing what so ever (see sig for wheel off sets) and I have 2 amps and a 1 12" small truck size box in the trunk. I'll post pix Sunday :)
Oh and the front is not 3.5 its more like 2 ;)
