but im clueless when it comes to aggressive wheel so my question again is..is front 19x9.5 +25 and rear 19x9.5 +25 good enough? will i need to roll the fenders? will i need camber kits? are these coilovers good? AND..these are the rims are getting
EDIT: yeah i asked in the other thread..these rims will fit..they are 5x114.3
i like the setup you guys are running and would like to have the same setup..

its a start.... You may need to do some slight mods to your fender like rolling. If however, you get your coilovers on and take it to a good alignment shop you may not need to.. but probably will need some rolling... but yes that's a start.
going for something like this?
Car: Mazda RX8
Wheels: 19×8.5/10 Linea Corse LC818 - Hyper Black (5×114.3 +30+38 73hb)
Tires: 225/40/19 Front; 255/35/19 Rear
Suspension: D2 Coilovers

I just don't see why you'd run a 295. That's what my buddy runs on his 911 on an 11.5 inch wheel. The tires are pretty sick looking on that but too much on an rx8. It'd look like a tubbed out muscle car.

its a win win situation for you =] and i can vouch for atilla, hes a good guy and ive seen the rims in person, they are sexy =]
here is his thread

Rota just released a 17x10 +50 in the RT5 model. Perfect for stuffing some meaty tires without modding your fenders. Seem to be selling for around $800/set so pretty cheap.

Granted I am not a fan nor a supporter for rep wheels. For $800 a set, I wouldn't mind using them as a set of beater track wheels. Seems like S2000 guys are having trouble clearing BBK's with them though.

Many wheels won't clear the Stoptech BBK on the RX8 either, but clear most others. It's one of the primary reasons most people don't use it.

and I can steer! Just had to modify the frame... with a hammer... and some anger.
But I'm pretty sure my rear is lower, we're on the same coilovers, maxed out. But I run a 255/35/18 in back. Unless you have the shorter spring, which I think you may have mentioned. I know dlum does.
