Very nice. I love the color you chose for the wheels. Goes really well with the red.

chrism 05-17-2007 07:05 PM

BigRed 05-17-2007 07:08 PM

JRichter 05-17-2007 07:17 PM

Lookin good. I love those wheels.

Sato Tatsuya 05-17-2007 07:38 PM

oh wow! I love your car, it's amazing! What wheels do you have on anyways? I cannot seem to tell. Amazing!!! I cannot wait to see more! :D

NoTears316 05-17-2007 07:57 PM

Had me worried with the title... I thought it was gonna be the Xmen wing.

chrism 05-17-2007 08:00 PM

notears you confused me with the new av!

elite8 05-17-2007 08:04 PM

Clean look, those work wheels look amazing!!! I think the app. package might set your car off real goood....

Gambit 05-17-2007 08:17 PM

wheels look sweet man

Wolverine 05-17-2007 08:20 PM

Those are Work Emtion XT-7. 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear. +38 offset all around. The tyres are Yokohama Advan Neova AD07 235/40R18 in the front and 265/35R18 in the rear. BTW I'm in Hawaii.

I've seen a lot of JDM body kits, but I'll stick with Mazdaspeed front, sides and Varis rear diffuser.

Sato Tatsuya 05-17-2007 09:03 PM

oh yeah! those vortex generators!! I almost forgot about them, lol. Nice :)!

bruce_van 05-17-2007 09:07 PM

I think you are the first to have pictures at a CEMETERY!!!! Yikes.

Are you planning on getting an exhaust? Those stock tips look really small with the MS spoiler. I had new tips put on a few weeks ago and it really improved the looks of the rear end.

R888 05-17-2007 09:54 PM

May I hijack your thread?

Things I like: Wheels, tires and spoiler.

Things I don't: Fake-ass "vortex generators". I don't care what you say about air flow, they are fake, and a complete Evo knock-off.

canaryrx8 05-17-2007 10:16 PM

nice, wheels look sick! looks like you'll be rollin' fenders too if you go any lower :D:

'87 Turbo II 05-17-2007 10:44 PM

Pretty............

NVMYRX 05-17-2007 10:47 PM

sick ride :)

cleoent 05-17-2007 11:08 PM

nice wheels!

The MS spoiler looks out of place and those triangles on the roof look downright silly.

VASasha 05-17-2007 11:23 PM

sick wheels, dont' know about the shark fins though....i mean, how many XM receivers do you need?

Wolverine 05-18-2007 12:07 AM

Thanks for the kind words. Yeah, I knew there would be some opposition on the vortex generators. At least I'm the first, LOL! I'll have something done to the fenders next week. I'll be adding a body kit, exhaust, etc. when the funds do become available.

CarAndDriver 05-18-2007 12:11 AM

Not a big fan of the MS spoiler and esp. those little EVO like roof triangles.

lol, yeah! At least you are one of a kind! I know those belond to EVOs, but that does not matter, because it just makes your Rx8 look funky, and no matter what it WILL grab those eyes :p:

scsi 05-18-2007 05:43 AM

the wheels look good!

you're in hawaii? on oahu? im in hawaii too! never seen your car around though

Sato Tatsuya 05-18-2007 05:46 AM

lol! why not just cover his entire car with pictures of pokemon everywhere? That way people will know that he is the biggest fan of Pokemon ever :p:

chrism 05-18-2007 08:17 AM

no wonder why he never came out to a NY or NJ meet! I always wondered!

lazi 05-18-2007 01:48 PM

it looks goood!

XDEEDUBBX 05-18-2007 02:50 PM

well i like your rim and tire combo, those look good, but boo for vortex generators..

lesper4 05-18-2007 02:58 PM

looks great but you need to get some body kits on it or at elast springs, sits kind of high.

altspace 05-18-2007 06:09 PM

At least paint them OEM VR so they match and not look tacked on.

ElusiveFX 05-19-2007 03:51 AM

slam her to the ground and your set!

StealthTL 05-19-2007 04:23 AM

Excellent.....
 
Yeah, I was right with you until I saw the little shark fins.....

A good rule-of-thumb to keep in mind is

"If it has uses double sided tape, it has no place on the car."

You suck !!

HAHA

unreal89 05-19-2007 01:45 PM

Dude, those are Work Emotion XT-7 wheels

RX-Hachi 05-19-2007 02:05 PM

Nice car Wolverine!

But of all the beautiful locations in Hawaii to snap some pics, you pick a grave yard? Spooky.:Eyecrazy:

BTW, I recall your location used to say "HI" years ago, now it says "NY". Did you got to school and come back or something? Or are you just pretending to live in NY?;)

Well.....what about the appearance package?

LabDad 05-19-2007 04:30 PM

:icon_tup:
Looks good. I'm undecided on the vortex generators tho. It's not that I don't like them (I was/am considering them myself). They just look a little funny because the fin is small relative to the base. If the base were smaller or the fin a little bigger I think it would look better. Otherwise painted body color would look good IMO.

BTW have you noticed any difference with the vortex generators? Has your rear glass been noticibly cleaner since they've been installed. Also when you go driving after the car has been rained on do the water droplets get swept off or do they just sit there, like mine does now.

GeTcRuNk 05-19-2007 05:02 PM

love the offset...propss :)

canaryrx8 05-19-2007 05:19 PM

geez folks, this is the same dude who wanted an xmen wing. If he wants little bits attached to his roof cut him some slack, just because it's not everyone's taste doesn't mean they may not work, and besides, I think they give the car a kind of sinister look that flows well with all the parts he's picked out :dunno:

scsi 05-19-2007 07:16 PM

I know what the wedssport rims look like...do you?

Phantom Menace 05-19-2007 07:51 PM

Nice car. My only advice, if warranted, would be to deep-six the stickers.

Nice rims, too!

NoTears316 05-19-2007 08:21 PM

I think he should put them all over the car. Make it look like a porcupine.

its great because there is an rx8 local like that.

Those rims are pretty sweet!

RX-8Newb 05-20-2007 08:56 AM

LOL, nice vortex generator! Love the wheels, if you dont mind me asking how much did the wheels and tires run you?

sagangi9 05-20-2007 10:09 AM

Very nice man ~ love your wheel and the color. BTW, did you drop your car?
If so, what kind of Spring did you use and how low?
