Gratz on the new wheels Jedi.. i know what you mean about looking over and over and over again at different wheels and tires. Maybe one day I'll actually make up my mind.

18 x 9's... Forget the offset but it's pretty low, I believe +31 or +29. Most RX8 tune shops in Japan run that similar setup.

NICE! What are the specs? I was wondering how that combo would look, and let me say that it looks way better than I thought. Only thing I would change is your spoiler. OEM never did much for me.

Wanted those for the longest time but couldn't justify the price and extra pound as opposed to the RPF1's I got. Nice one though man. :D congrats.

The Evo guys sell a lot of good stuff for cheap

Those wheels are in a word, sexy. I would have to get a different offset though so I can put bigger rubber on 'em for AutoX

Update: My contact on those TCIIs turned out to be so full of **** his eyes were brown. Sometimes you just can't trust a friend to not talk out of his ***. Looks like I'm going to be pushing for some RS's in an 18x9 setup, non GTR face. Which offset should I go with? The options I found listed are as follows:

+45
+35
+29
+22

I know the +29 is too shallow (and for GTR face only I think) for what I need, so I'm guessing the +45 or +35. Suggestions?

18x9 +29 is beautifully flushed for the rear. Camber and roll required though.. Those are Advan RS's on my ride

Not sure about your front bumper, but the rear is sexy.
