DrewMan I sure hope you had some jack stands under your car, not just that little donut changing jack! Sure would hate to see that car fall on those beautiful new tireless rims. Of course your safety too... Like the rims BTW.

if theres a "best looking Rx-8" contest
you got my vote
I always think you got a great color combo. Such a nice car
those sticker aside you can't find a ugly spot in this car

if you wanna know what ugly is
scroll all the way down and you see that silver thing in the advertisment?

Ok guys I'm getting ready to order my second set of volks this time they are for the RX8. I'm looking at 18x9.5 TE-37's which offset would be better +35 or +40 I don't want to roll the fenders but I will if I have too.

I'd go for the +35, you won't regret it. You will have to roll the rears though. I did for +37 x9.5, but it was an easy 2 hrs project.

StuttgartRX8 FYI, my TE-37s are 19x9.5 all around, +34 in the rear and + 43 in the front, for the rear you might need to roll fender but since i already rolled it and it should not have any problems, just roll the fender you might have more choice to get some aggressive rims.

Stut, you will not have a problem if you run a 255 tire. i run 18x9.5 +38 all around with 255/35R18 and can definately run as low as +30. but then again, my car is lowered with coilovers so negative camber helps as well.

Rotr8, there are a couple guys on here that have the new RE30...but none with an aggressive offset.
