Would you believe I registered for this forum just to respond to this thread? What a guy!
Anyway, I have the RPO3 in SBC on my G35 sedan. Link is here: http://g35driver.com/forums/showthread.php?t=161948
Rubber is 245/40 front and 275/35 Eagle F1 GS-D3 rear on 19s. Also, wheels are staggered, 8.5 front, 9.5 rear. Got them thru Tirerack but had to special order them and wait a month or two to get them on a slow boat from Japan. They're not normally stocked in the U.S.
Hope this helps.
BTW, big fan of the RX8. I'm sure I'd just be preaching to the choir but it makes for a family friendly sporster, which is nice. The gas mileage issues are a bummer but hey, if it's an extra car for fun on the weekends, how much would I really notice?

I'M YOUR MAN FOR ALL YOUR ENKEI RACING SERIES NEEDS. ALL MY STUFF IS
GRIP APPROVED
and
M.A.T. APPROVED
Coincidentally, I just brought in a shipment of
RP03-RC 19x9.5 +42 SBC Finish for a SYMMETRICAL fitment on 275/30/19
to take pics on te RX8 and post on the board. Your timing is impecable.
Here you go: Rocking 275/30/19 front and rear. Forgot to remove the 5mm spacer up front so it's netting a +37. I gotta order 2 more tires so I can complete the set. I just grabbed these off the rears of my AME's.
I FRIKIN' LOVE IT AND THEY CLEARED MY BRAKES WONDERFULLY.
So shiny looks like PHOTOSHOP......
19X9.5 +37 WITH 275/30/19 (because of 5mm spacer I forgot about)
19X9.5 +42 WITH 275/30/19
Glad to help whenever I can.
I've posted same thread in our vendor section here.....
