yeap, still have the 8. as far as it looking good, that's a no. the car has been thru hell and barely made it back. may look good on the interwebz, but in person it's a bit rough.

The same people posting makes no difference as long as they are always posting new wheel setups. Worked for me long enough, haha.

This is exactly what I was going for - something a bit more subtle but still on the louder side of the spectrum. In light, these end up brighter than expected but I am happy so far!

Lulz, someone should make an aggressive driveway thread

Munchy- Your RX-8 is clean as can be.

Tilt- Fitment is always perfect.

Keep'em coming guys! I guess 265's would be my best bet for fitment while still maintaining a bit of traction (cause I need lots of it lol).

Finally removed the bumper tab lol.

Those last 2 pictures are basically straight off the camera with 2% effort put into making them look good. Canon S95 ftw

Specs: 18x9.5 +28f/+23r with 245/40 Nitto Invo on JIC FLTA2 coilovers -2.2ish camber all around

Sifu - Best bumper evaaaaarrrrr!! Nice to see you had the sides integrated - I'm guessing without the bulbs? I could be wrong.

My aero isn't 100% ready to go on, so this was just a test fit of the sides to see how clearance will be. Also a shot from earlier.

Thanks guys! The Works I have on right now need some good polishing. As for more pictures...that is being arranged

Tilt- your are right! No bulbs in place. Modded the clears a bit to get them on without messing with the bumper too much. Your car is looking great homie!

Thanks man!

I would've boosted about 3 times now...but have bigger plans for the 8. That's the only reason why I got to work on the Vertex and a custom made diffuser by the end of the summer. You better make it next week!
