thats why I said +25 +22
I was talking about the rear, but for the front I doubt its even 9.5. Looks more like a 8.5 +25. They make +22 for 9.5, but not +25. Its kool though! I still think its +15 though.

Thanks for inputing though

I completely aggree with you Silver, what this new track car is sporting is very different I was about to post the same pic that you did and call ou the same area,,,

Here are some images from this last page, Notice the flare that Silver has pointed out and a thought I had never considered to notice is the aformentioned well offset/concave, notice this is dramatically different in the new pit garage pic vs. the showroom and Turbo mag article,,,,
Again we could be completely imagining this but it does appear that there is a newer overfender that at least for now is an inhouse/shop car only set...

read that page dude, it clearly says 17x9.5 all around offset part is blurred. No way its that low, the concavity will be in the same level as the gates311 evo I pictured above

Again we're not arguing what was in that article from years ago, the debate now is that it appears that the rear fenders have been stepped up a notch...

Did you know that I posted the specs before that magazine page was even posted. And none of us were even talking about the panspeed 8 in that magazine page.... Just by looking at the wheel spec of the panspeed 8 in that magazine page, I can already tell that no sh*t its not a low offset...

Go reread a couple of pages back before you jump in and try to give corrections. Also that magazine page was introducing the 2006 panspeed 8 which is pretty old already..... The one which we were all discussing about is the most recent one with the newer version of rear over fenders and is rockin on a new set of ce28n's (bronze instead of gold and new specs)!

Rotr8 already posted some comparison pics of the one in the magazine and the one which we are all discussing about. Take a look at the comparison pics and tell me if those look like the same specs to you.

good to see people "discuss" rationally instead of argue on a message board... kudos to the both of you.

I <3 RE Amemiya FDs. Both their front bumper with the flip up lights, and the 993-style conversion with round rear lights.. Just so awesome.

Now if they could only get those 40ft beam sabres to work they could go lay a smack down on N. Korea...

Man, they already have a moded 09 bumper for the 04-08 RX8. Except they really only added the oil cooler update. Mine will be pretty nice too.
