Its roughly about as agressive as the 19X10.5 +15 setup I wanted to run but either one will be about as agressive of a setup that anyone has ran, scary either way but I dont think that either will be much of a problem to fit as is and if push comes to shove I know for sure I can get em to fit with a pull.

No-no.. YOUR pull was





























j/k

But when done clean pulls are barely noticeable.

And "rarity" in the sense that they aren't available but I'm sure once they become readily available plenty will have em. But I don't care about what the wheel is, I'll make anything look good.

The wheels I was hoping on were the ones Ross posted and the second idea I had for my VS that I have was used on a car in this months superstreet/modified. I'm in no hurry or worryin'. I'm just checkin out cool deals and what ever appeals or pops will be my choice. The RX8 is on the back burner till spring while I finish other things. If I get lucky I'll land a vette or a NSX and can can the RX8 and wont have to worry about it.

My front pull was fine, my rears were flared and looked off before I did some more work to them, I agree. At the time I was more worried about getting the wheels under the fenders, lol. A pull is a pull, anyone who knows the car's natural body lines will notice a pull.

I wouldn't consider time attack rpf1's to be rare, just a less common version of an inexpensive, played out, solid wheel. Make anything look good eh? What made you pick your first set of wheels for the 8?...

Hopefully you will end up in a vette or nsx. Just please don't go around whoring your car on various forums after buying another user's parts. You seemed like an alright guy until I stumbled across the **** talking you were spreading at honda-tech, regardless of whether you claim it to be a "joke" or not.

Ugh, I tried to find some pics to keep this place on topic but failed at finding anything good. Anyone have any pics to add?

At least get the wheel type right lol. They were Zigens not Enkies. And there are very few wheels I consider legitimately rare, none of which I have seen on an 8. I was being a douche on H-T because I can and I always have fun over there. I've been on H-T since '01 its common practice to pick fights and see how butt hurt you can get people over the internet. You'd be amazed at how bold and badass everyone is behind a keyboard. It was all for laughs and I got to run around at the next few big Honda meets with my boys with shirts that said "Race Slammed!" it was worth it. And I'll ***** the car all day if people like it, whats the use of doing our cars up and not showing them off. People aren't use to anything beyond wheels and minor things done to our cars, its a good thing to change their views.

I haven't seen anyone with wheels I haven't seen on someone elses car before. You get one shot to be the first to have something and then it all goes out the window. At the end of the day its all about how much a person likes their own cars, I could care less what one of those guys says to me when they talk crap and I goto their own car shows and win. It all makes it worth it in the end.

And my first set of wheels for my 8 were SSRs, if you are referring to what made me chose the Zigens it would be because of the RX7 locally that had them on his car (staggered) Amd a friend with a sylvia that had bronze ones ironically also on NT01s (long before Dedubb had them) I didn't catch onto Bryans setup until a guy (he use to be on here) at a car meet told me there was an RX8 that just got those wheels too and by the time I looked him up they were FS (at which time he only had em for a ridiculously short amount of time) Everything goes full circle, they have moved onto DriftKing all the way in NY and I hope he gets some great use out of them and the cycle continues on. If it looks good, enjoy it and be proud about it.

And I agree, moAr wheelz0rz!

I was using rpf1's as an example, I know all about fno1r-c's, could have at least got some fno1r's and called 'em rare! Modding cars just to brag about them? Making shirts and wasting time going to honda meets with "your boys"? I think your last post said enough. But anyways, good luck with whatever mods/cars you've got planned. At least you do it right, those apr mirrors nice, haven't seen anything similar on a US car.

Lets just say from here out, every post in this thread, from here out, must have pics or be pertaining to pics, including this post. No more off topic-ness, yeah?
