Love the vert! I've always wanted one of these. Did you swap the wheels already?
I don't have the car yet. lol. How can I swap the wheels? I still have my RX8 wheels. But I'm not sure how red and Black would look on white. I don't think it would look good. Plus they're 265/35-18's. Would fit the back, just not to sure on the front.
So now I am going to be looking for a new set of something.

My general thought is that people who are unwilling to read the STICKIED posts in this exact forum before posting about forced induction have no business messing with their engine.
Hmmm the vert looks familiar. yeah, 265/35-18's would have a very hard time fitting up front.
congrats on the nice addition.
Thanks Dave. It should look familiar. You've seen it before.
Ya I don't think the 265's are gong to work. Ray will be getting my old wheel set up. I think they will look nice on his Black 8.

yep, fixed. Keep it clean or go extreme, I dont think Ive ever seen a RE Amemiya Widebody convertible before,,, and that would solve any doubts you may have about wheel fitment,,,
Nice to see you're staying in the rotary family. How many manifolds to spare on this one?
