Need help in Austin. I was headed to work in Dripping Springs and hit a small boulder on 620 destroying my drivers side right rear wheel. As we all know the rx8 doesnt have a spare in the trunk so my car is stranded in Lakeway til I can either borrow a wheel to drive it to my apartment or I buy a wheel. I have found a good deal on OEM replacement wheels but they are 3-5days out... Can anyone help?

call or text if u can help.
If I can borrow a wheel I will only need it for an hour or so.

 

I have an extra wheel and probably access to a tire but they are not mounted. Try posting in the SARX lounge, some of the Austin guys chime in. Any spare wheel from a Mazda 6, Mustang, 350z, EVO, should fit.

 

what part of SA u in? maybe I could buy the wheel from u??? the quicker i get my car back in commission the better..... Cant get to work other wise. Shoot me a text or something. I'm in a bit of a pickle.

 

I have a spare wheel, are you looking to buy or borrow? I have one stocker with a tire mounted and ready to go I keep at the shop where we play with my car, it's at 183/35. With HeatWave next weekend (car show) and all the prep we're doing to get ready for it I can't really take much time to drive it somewhere so if you need it still hit me up, maybe we can work something out.

 

Thanx for the help Canary. Tire is different size but it will work just fine. Cant thank you enough for having one on hand lol.

 

no problem at all dude, if you get around to needing a body shop to fix your hail damage I have connections, I also know of a good "pdr" guy if you decide on that route. Jsut let me know, if you need a place to work on your car on the weekends we play with stuff at the shop all the time too lol

 

Back working a semi regular job again and been wanting to put a small sub in my rear dash lid but cant figure out what to use. Since u seem to be a bit of a car audiofile, what do you recommend? I have been looking at free air subs for a while but know I wont get very good sound out of them. Cant really see a way to build a small noninvasive enclosure that would attach to the underside of the read dash. Also I wanna keep the factory dec for now and tap into the rear speakers with a passive line out converter. What u think?
