I still haven't decided which color I like best. I'm a little biased towards Galaxy Grey since that's what I have.. But this car looks amazing in almost all of them!
P.S. - I haven't forgot about the battles pictures I promised.. I'm waiting for the body shop to fit my OEM body kit before taking some new pictures. :naughty: |
Good good. Looking forward to them!
|
We will be patiently waiting :)

So I had a question for ones who had to shave there rear bumper tabs to run an agressive fitment. How did u properly mount the corner of the rear bumper to the fender so it aligns perfect again? Im running 19's with 245/35/19 and it was rubbing so much that i had to do away with the bumper tab and shave a little of the plastic mount that is in the corner a well so now the corner of my bumper sticks out or in too much. Thanks

You either have a floppy bumper of you drill a new hole and rig up something to hold it together.
|
You get rid of 19's and get 18's and stiffer spring rates. Problem solved :)

Unfortunately I just traded my 18's for these 19's so there's no going back. Regardless most of the rx8's on this thread are tucking wayyyy harder then I am so they had to of shaved off there bumper tab. I definitely agree I need stiffer springs. At the moment I'm running oem suspension with tien lowering springs but the suspension seems to be so loose. I feel rx8's do horrible with weight. Putting 3 people in my car makes it drop a ridiculous amount.

You also never gave wheel specs. Tien springs are barely stiffer than stock and there are crappy knockoff ones floating around that don't work so good.
|
I assumed you had coilovers. There's your problem.
|
The 19's are 8.5 unknown offset. I'd love to get coil overs and that would most definitely solve the softness in the suspension but unfortunately can't afford em right now lol. The tien springs are real there not knock offs.
|
The offset should be in the back of the wheel. You're wheels are not incredibly wide, so unless the offset is crazy low then something else is wrong.
|
Shouldn't rub on lower springs with 8.5's. I agree with tim
|
There's no way the offset is low enough to make an 8.5 rub. Need to dump those springs and go with something a lot stiffer. But I don't think that is your problem. Something else is wrong. Need more specs and maybe a Pic or two
|
I've got 18x9.5 wide with a offset of 20 with tein springs and I only rub when I hit a decent size bump.

Some pretty sweet cars in here, Here's a photo of my RX8 |
^ I DEMAND SPECS AND MORE PICTURES NOW. Also my 18x9.5 +10 never rubs at all, coilovers are set inbetween full soft and the halfway point. You shouldn't be rubbing
|
Also, I have a lot of pictures I wanna post, but I made a thread instead. Enjoi
