They gotta go because today I found them very difficult to remove when checking the tire pressure. Inserts look like brass which I figured was good but they don't seem to be getting along well with the metal of the valve stem. The plastic piece was spinning while the insert remained stuck. Gotta take a closer look to see if they were cross-threaded. Not that I'm blaming the installer :p
, just a thought.

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses. I think your weakness is style, and unfortunately your significant other is a bad influence in that area too. :p

Bro those 8 ball caps got's to go! Why not just put rotary caps on it. Mazda trix sells them. It looks better than your 8 ball. You can also change your center caps on your rims into a rotary insignia. Go to mazdatrix.com they have some pictures posted for rx8 accesories.
Whaaaa?

I actually kinda like my 8-ball shifter.. Although it is a bit confusing for someone who's never used a 6-speed before - they just have to guess where reverse is...
Anyhow - I find the 8-ball to be the perfect size to fit into the palm of my hand... and I think it looks kinda cool too...!
.. I'm not too crazy about the 8-ball valve caps though ....

OK, I gotta admit, I thought of an 8 ball ever since buying my 8 but, would I admit it on this forum to having applied 8 ball valve stems and a shifter ****? Not on your life. LOL Take me off!
