My new rims, P45R, pics inside
 
Picked them up last Friday! Currently there's a set of 225 yoko's on there but I will be putting 245s on as soon as I get my Tein Stechs in as well, as you can see the wheel gap is currently sickening. The rim is a Rota P45R in 18x9.5 +30, tommy gold.

Nice specs but you need a drop baaaaaadddddddd. :)

markf5020 04-24-2012 04:32 PM

It's comin' man it's comin'! My S.Techs just left LA according to UPS :p

9krpmrx8 04-24-2012 04:34 PM

Cool, if you have not ordered tires yet I would order 265/35-18's.

markf5020 04-24-2012 04:40 PM

I'll be running 245s for now, already have a set in the garage, when they are done I'll be bumping up to either 255 or 265.

9krpmrx8 04-24-2012 04:42 PM

Cool. I have 245/40-18's on a 9.5 and it is a bit too much stretch for me.

RMXG8 04-24-2012 06:44 PM

Yes looks good but need a drop!!!!

monchie 04-24-2012 11:37 PM

For sho. Anyway, looks good.

Looks sick but ya get those springs asap..



BTW check out the canada forum we are having a huge meet on april 29th... there are about 40 rx8s going so far. SIGN UP !!

P45-R's, good choice. I'd recommend Koni Yellows to go with those springs, it gives it an extra bit of drop and it's the perfect height. Also 265/35/18's like 9k said.

Looks sick though.

Thanks for the comments guys! I wasn't 100% sure on these rims until I saw them in person and my jaw dropped, love 'em!

Nice man, not usually a fan of striped rims but it works great with your setup.

markf5020 04-25-2012 12:50 AM

Oh, and 5 spoke ftw of course :D

dozer 04-25-2012 12:52 AM

your car looks clean too, drop it and itll only look that much cleaner. nice job btw thumbsup sir

JCrane82 04-25-2012 09:07 PM

Nice color OP, looks sharp on the velocity red. Now you just need some 265's on there. The 225's are way too stretched for my liking.

bumblebeerx8 04-25-2012 09:12 PM

looks good even better when lowered. I had a set of 17x9.5 p45r in gunmetal when i first got the car, liked the look but had to go to a larger set up for turbo piping clearance so they got sold.
