Who is running Staggered 20s ?
What size tire/rim on front and rear?
offset? What brand wheels and tires? Can you post pics, please? TIA |
Why do you want to run staggered wheels of any size, let alone 20"? Staggered tires sizes will just jack up your handling and with 20" wheels you might as well strap a boat anchor to your wheel hubs.

Looks looks looks, car is too fast for me as is.
I have 225/40/18s on my MX-3, came with 15 inch wheels. Found this on ebay: OFFSET +50mm Picture below is a 1.5" dropped Mazda RX-8 with identical high offset staggered wheels and BFgoodrich G-Force KDW2 size 245-30-20 (front) + 265-30-20 (rear). We recommend the use of: 27.0" Diameter: 245-35-20 (front) matched with 255-35-20 (rear) 26.5" Diameter: 225-35-20 (front) matched with 275-30-20 (rear) 25.5" Diameter: 225-30-20 (front) matched with 285-25-20 (rear) Or any other tire size combination that respect the vehicle's stock overall wheel diameter (+/- 4%) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20-WH...spagenameZWDVW |
looks like the car has monster truck tires from the back.
ridiculous |

Looks dumb. Don't do it. You'll ruin performance in every way.

Everyone has there own style. At least he is driving an 8. And it does not look nearly as bad as a lot I have seen. It will be very heavy though. Slow the steering so much. Hurt exceleration. It is his car though.

Why would you put 20's.. I think the 18's are plenty big enough

mclaren_75211 says>>> go for what u want is your car.
I say>>> Ya its mine. Paid all cash last Monday. $19,750, 06 Shinka MT copper red. WoodsOfGreenRx8 says>>>Can't anyone just help him with what he wants? Its ok. They are helping me even if its negative. This way I get all kinds of ideas, both pro and con. Thanks all for responding. thecow135 said>>>>wtf? i clicked this link and it went to some bs about performance something and started fucking with my firefox I got that same stuff first time I clicked on link. Was a hassle to close it. Had to re click on link. I just got the car last Wednesday so am in no rush to Mod it. Am just doing research for later. But I do think I want 20s, even if it makes MY 8 a bit slower. It's not even my daily driver. I don't race. Speed is not important to me. I want looks. If it makes it look ugly then I won't do it. Will wait till present tires need replacing. Also want to go to the Houston 8 club meeting so I can see other 8s in person and not just in pics. mclaren_75211 , your car does not look bad to me. It looks sweet. I see you are in Dallas. I am in Houston but will have a trip to Dallas soon ( first Sat computer swap meet) so would like to see your car in person if you don't mind. TIA all. |
alot of people hear talk out there ass.
a rx8 running on 18 or 19's does not mean it will run quicker. Handling is another story that I can not prove. I have had my car since 04 and have 1320 tracked it at Rotorfest, rolled on with 8's with 18's, 19's.always with success except for a run with blue turbo 8. sad thing is some guys think they know whats best for YOUR car. I built my car to my taste and driving needs. and I hope you do the same, I can help you out. just pm me since I rather not post pics or specs. thanks |

Same with my neighbors. So I ask for their opinion then I do what I was going to do. ( What I had already decided to do ) Makes them think I care what they think. Makes them think they are important. Kel sent you a PM. TIA |

I say>>>>Note the topic was: Who is running Staggered 20s ? So why answer off topic and waste everyone's time? You retard and can't read and comprehend? AGAIN TOPIC IS WHO IS RUNNING STAGGERED 20s AND NOT IF i SHOULD OR NOT. NOTE That some ppl are running 20s. I am not the only one who thinks they look good. Read the posts/links. OOPS sorry forgot you can't read and comprehend. You say>>>If you want to waste money to make your car slower and uglier, go ahead. I AM A BIG BOY. IT'S MY MONIES. I WILL DO IT IF I SO DESIRE. I DON'T NEED YOUR BLESSINGS TO DO IT. BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER. I LIKE AND DON'T CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK. BESIDES THE CAR IS TOO FAST FOR ME. DON'T MIND IF IT IS A BIT SLOWER as long as my 6 year old neighbor does not pass me on his skates, I am ok with the 8s speed. NOTE TOPIC IS NOT WHAT DO PPL THINK OF STAGGERED 20s but I should start one for ppl like you. What makes you respond if you are not answering the topic? Wait, wait I get it. You think your opinion matters! Now, why are you getting defensive. No response to this post is required from you. |
I think big wheels make it look like a toy.
Just what I always wanted in life.. grow up and drive a toy car! HA! |

I am also perfectly capable of making my own topics, but I don't, because the boards are already clogged enough with dumb threads like this. So, I will now use this one to post the counterpoint: WHO ISN'T RUNNING STAGGERED 20'S BECAUSE THEY LOOK GAY!? Yeah, me fuckin' too. |
Proved my point that "You retard and can't read and comprehend!!"
Since you could not read and comprehend>>>>No response to this post is required from you. |
Oh no, I read and comprehended. I just ignored. Apparently you missed the part where I said I don't where and when you think I should post. You actually expect me to do what you tell me?
Besides, even if I couldn't comprehend your writing, I don't think anyone would be too surprised, what with your astute command of the English language. |
