yea, i figured it was one of those kinda deals too...after I add gauges and all the other crap that's not included, it would almost double.

However, straight from the people of www.rx8store.com (i think it's down right now), they claimed that $3800 would pay for ONLY what comes with the kit, and the intial tuning. I figured that a nice trail of extra costs would follow.

 

not to mention more gas money ^^^^^^

 

only if you floor it a lot. otherwise it's not beyond the normal range for a NA rx-8.

 

what is the exact rim measurements for the stock 18 inch rims? i wanna buy rims the same size so i can use my same tires on the new set of rims.

 

stock rims are 18x8 +50

you can got with lower offset just for a lil aggressive look though.

but if you go volks, you should be able to go wider. you might regret it.

 

get a cheaper rims and replica mazdaspeed kit, then it will still within you budget, but sounds cheap, at least it's another solution.
