Nice! Anyway, your rx8 looks lower and has a different wheels on your signature picture...so, is your ride in stock height right now? Just curious.

Damn, Ryan! When I first saw this thread, I thought you were gonna be showing off new rims haha

Still, I like looking at your car. Your car is always so clean! And, the appearance package looks gorgeous in the PB. If you're looking to get rid of those, you know who to call

Thanks Dean. I really wanted to get new rims like n my signature, but just bought a bunch of **** for the house so wheels will have to wait for now.

Nice. I just got the same tires. They are sticky but LOUD AS HECK on the freeway. Above 65 mph it sounds like I'm running on mudders in a lifted truck.

Any reason why you went with KDW2's? Not exactly the best for the money

I've heard they're loud too, but I don't think they're that bad.

I have them on my cts-v so I knew I liked them already. I'm sure I could have found some for a lil less but I knew I would like these for sure, so went with the safe choice, I guess.
