9krpm, with a bit more drop those wheels will look good!

Either that, or I seeing the pic in your sig makes me like them a bit more and more each time.

Either way, nice choice of wheels and for not being afraid of being a little different.

Thanks man, I plan on getting side skirts and respray of the front end soon and then I pretty much decided on coilovers. I am also putting 10mm spacers on the front and we will see if that evens the fronts with the rears. I would also like to get a rare front lip or bumper but I want something clean and simple.

This thread needs a bump!

Found an ad on eBay where they are using my car to sell wheels.

Well they are G35 wheels first of all, but also made by rays so I think that qualifies.

Havent seen any other RX 8s running this wheel so far.
19x8 +30
19x8.5 +33
Should get pics of them on the car tomorrow.

I didnt really take any side pics since this was kinda a rush, but id say about a 5-7mm spacer up front and 5 mm spacer in rear would make them perfectly flush with the fender.
