My Girl(RX8) Birthday is tomorrow!!!

My girl is exactly 4 years old tomorrow. Picked her up new and have right below 24k on it.
Only issue I can remember is drivers side visor....oh yeah, and the damn coolant bottle sensor!

Found a cake online!

That's your car????O-M-G I have been looking for rims just like those, a y pattern with a deep dish. Your car is badass.

What kind of rims are those and what is your setup? I was gonna go with Volk SF Winning but those look better.

Yeah....yeah.....yeah.

My drive to work is only 9 miles............that helps keep it down at least five days a week. And when I go on vacation, I'm usually flying to a tropical island somewhere in the world.

I don't know, the Volks are pretty sweet!

Anyway,

I am running a staggered setup right now.

Front
HP RACING Lightning EVO Dark Wheels.
Specs: 18x8 - 5x100/114.3
Tires = 225/45ZR-18 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position

Back
HP RACING Lightning EVO Dark Wheels.
Specs: 18x9 - 5x100/114.3
255/40ZR-18 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position

HP's can be found at http://www.hpracing.com/product.phtml?p=61 but I don't see my sizes offered anymore. Might have to contact them or poke around. I did go back to the site I bought them from, and they still have them. See the second set http://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/Wh...mageField.y=17

The offset is +38 and I'm also lowered but on by 1/2 inch with racing beat springs on all corners.
