King Springs mate. I agree they have dropped the 8 perfectly.
As to ride quality with the springs and the new 19's I have to say I much prefer the way it is now. The springs are a little firmer but I find it gives a much more planted feeling on the road. I have to say the new tyres (even though lower profile) are far more comfortable than the OEM Bridgestones even though offering a lot more grip.

i initially found my Toyo lack alot of grip in the first month,
the back wheel tend to drift when i turn corner fast.
After the 1st month , the tyres steady in . and grip alot better than the Bridgestone. The steer wheel feel more heavier, but the tyres is noise at high
speed, on freeway.
I drop my car 2 inch on King spring about 6 months. the ride quality is still comfortable but my passager at th back complain that it is a bit rough. i
get over most speed hump with no problem.

I think you just sold me on these rims gentlemen. They are tasteful complements... to the natural beauty of the RX8 body.
I think the coloured lug nuts, add several octets of taste in my book. Simply beautiful!

Thanks for the inspiration. Looking forward to seeing these powder coated too!
