Mmmm nice and meaty

 

Sits nice, I just realized I forgot the center caps though

 

looks dope dude, those wheels go well with the red fo sho.

 

Thanks, but it's Hoss-05's car My new rims will hopefully be in by Friday and slapped on before the weekend

 

hopefully mine will be on by friday too!
and i didnt get a chance to swap the exhaust so hopefully i do that too, just gotta get a u clamp for it.

 

I knew it wasn't yours man my new suspension arrives this week (possibly today), going to be fun finding help to put it on though.

 

what did you end up going with? kw?

 

not aggressive

 

^lol ya push em out like 20mm

 

In the end the progressive rate springs of the Kw turned me off, that and they were 5-600 bucks more expensive (they're still awesome though, even if I didn't go with them) than Stance so with my budget of about 2k, I went with Stance GR+, Hotchkis sways front and rear and whiteline endlinks front and rear. I'm not going to track the car anytime soon, but I want it low and I want it to handle like a racecar so that's what I based my decision off of. I did a TON of research, agonized over that decision for months and months, and after reading multiple forums, reviews, pros and cons, and everything else hopefully I made the right choice, either way I'm excited about changing up the car and when I'm done it should be a lot more fun to drive than it is now.

 

We'll see how much lowering it more pulls them in but 20 less mm of offset would be nuts. I've got some better pics but they actually stick out way more than I thought they would, right now they are past the fenders..

 

Thats because the car is still so high, once it goes lower the wheels will tuck nicely.

Edit: You knew that (my bad)

 

Hoss-05's looks good with those wheels!

Post up some new pics Canary/TBK when yall get the new parts on

 

definitely will do, might take a while though

 

this counts as an aggressive stance Rx8 right?

 

I think so

 

Shhmexy 8

 

Thats freakin awesome Canary! I had a silver MS one but it doesn't look like my car haha.

 

will do! if not this weekend then the next. I should have the car back by this Friday, I'm going by the shop to check on it during my lunch break.

 

Awesome, take a quick cell phone pic

 

yeah it was fun building it up, it really does have agressive offsets, it's a 200mm body on an electric chassis (they usually take a 190mm) with 9mm wheels, the car came stock with 6mm TE37's all the way around so I bumped it up a notch
I have a really nutty brushless motor in it (7700kv) and a lipo battery, it runs for about 40-50 minutes at a time and can probably get up to 60-70mph if I had sticky tires on it, right now I run drift tires and they're solid plastic and made for sliding etc.

sorry, derailing the thread...again...my bad
