They are T5Rs and I am all but positive that they are offset, I am having a bit of a fight with my lovely wife on the issue right now (She is reading th wrong info off the tires). Long story short, I am an Army Diver currently deployed to OIF, so my VERY cool wife was shopping for sports car for me and found this RX8. It is the halo car for the dealership and all of the customizing work was done by them (supposed limited paint color, suspension etc.), she talked them into selling it to her in exchange for her taking it to car shows and letting them use if for a commercial. So she bought first and asked later. Once I found out then I started doing research on the RX8 line and now I am totally geeked out about them, I go on R&R soon and by then the turbo will be on along with the tint. So it has 220 miles on it and I have never driven the da** thing. War is hell.
