Aggressive Wheel Fitment Thread
Comparitively speaking, those numbers aren't as dramatic as you would imagine. I'm running 18x10 +25 on 265's w/no more than a tab delete, some rolled fenders and some C&C (Camber Creativity). I've seen 18x10.5 +22's fit w/265's w/the same amount of work. The rx8 has some surprisingly accommodating wheel wells.
Nothing crazy. I just removed the fender liners and bumper tabs. I will get an alignment one day and say actual specs.

Haha, that is my old car!
Might sound kind of funny because he cruises in same gear slowly into high rpms, I think. When mashing it in high RPM's the sound was amazing. True rotary bee-hive chainsaw sound

I have that exhaust combo except stock header and BHR midpipe. I'm gonna blame the unresonated midpipe. Also, wtf is with that front lip? That car is just gonna get riced out BAD. RIP car

Haha, that is the RE-Amemiya splitter/canard combo. I love that thing! Many people considered my car rice with my aero as well, just a matter of preference.
Semi-related - is your catback actual 3" piping, or the 2.76"? I had two JIC full ti's prior to this one, both with 2.76". When I picked this one up, I was told it was a Power Enterprise prototype, but to me it looked like it was produced in the same factory as the JIC (not uncommon).
Authentic is $$$ but I think this could be a replica, not too sure.
Good work Munchy!

I feel like that setup would sound perfect with the RB dual resonated midpipe.
