Right, I was thinking about putting on my stock FD rims(16x8) that I have left over. Should I get the same size but in 16 's?

Well even though the size says 11.5 the actual thread size.is 9.5 so they might work fine on an 8". They recomend a minimum of 9" wheel though.

Ive been very busy lately. I wired the 3rd gen's Haltech. That thing is going to be so sweet. And have been having fun with the cobra. I have let the rx8 sit for a bit. Just installed a wet kit on the cobra. 100 shot to start and up to as much as it can handle.. Lets blow it up so I have an excuse to build it.. lol
