I'm not too worried

Quick question for you Tilt... I have a 2011 R3 and looking at some VR G2's. I am not a big fan of poke'age and wanted to know how much neg. camber can I expect to dial in in the rear to fit a 19x10.5+35 running 275/30? I am lowered on coilovers.

Are you going to be selling them in June? If so I am interested. Pm me your asking price if this is the case. Thanks.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

This may be a bit of a surprise but the time has come to part ways with the RX8. Wow, that was hard to type, but true nonetheless! Will post the car for sale as it sites and post a part-out thread for my extra parts shortly.

I almost got the car to the point at which I was truly proud of it. This last wave of parts would have done it for me but alas, the time has come for something else!

Stock camber adjustment, don't recall what I'm at right now though as I've adjusted it a few times.

Damn dude your 8 is sick. Those Prodrive GCs looked gorgeous paired with those lugs. And out of curiousity how were the Hipermax coilovers compared to the Powertrix?

The Hipermax were truly great! That said, I wasn't the largest fan of the fact they were only one way height adjustable. Thus, when you would adjust height, it would also adjust pre-load. Still, excellent quality with those coilovers. In the end, I did prefer the versatility of the Powertrix though. If given the option, I would choose Powertrix in a heartbeat.

As of this past Saturday, this car has been sold. Thanks to everyone who really appreciated my car, was a pleasure to share my project(s) with everyone!
