Driving an RX-8 slow is painful. Hitting it hard without worrying about destroying your car is pure joy. Jedi's car is a great example of having the best of both form and function.

What kind of crazy unpredictable handling do you get with 225s on a 10 inch rim when driven hard?

I understand if it is more of a pretty thing so you can get your wheels to fit. I don't understand it on a supposed track car that looks like it scrapes ants. Driving in the grass is fun, too.

ITs missing one little piece. Everything will be re glassed over winter if its salvageable. Vertex is a grand a bumper so im hoping I wont need to replace anything.

Hopefully really shitty unpredictable so it helps me do sweet drifts into hard parks easier.

Why would you spend so much on a bumper and then leave your wheels like that?

Is it a legit drift car? If so I can understand, I was on a pit crew for a Forumla D supra that never got to actually race but qualified really well. Drift cars look like complete *** up close and in person.
