@tiltmode i was never a fan of that spoon bumper on s2k. but to each his own! baller might = expensive, but it doesn't always = awesome, unless the aero's getting ripped off at the track. I have a lead on the regas i want, but if i change my mind definitely hit you up!


@imput god i love miatas.


please more rx8 people learn from this. say no to stock offsets and yes to rolling fenders!

oh... for good measure, THIS AGAIN:

Yup, that's standard fitment anyway...

Mugen M7's custom re-barreled. Original NSX spec set faces cut out and re-welded onto new 18"/17" chrome dipped forged barrels.

18x10 +28 265/35, 17x8 +28 with 1 inch spacer (+2.6) 215/45

They are custom re-barreled. I have the ability to get any 2-piece wheel and made it wider, larger, or lower the offset (cut and re-weld). I haven't had CCW's yet, the LM20's are their only design that I sort of like. For custom wheels, I would rather look elsewhere - personal preference though.

My bad, don't know why I said CCW's, I meant HRE's.

rolled fenders is about it. slammed on basics is really just any old spring drop so you'll be fine. Really? only a 245 tire? thats quite the stretch bro
