they look heavy, not my style, but it's your money do what want with it

Most people will advise against staggered wheel setup, me included. There's a reason why the car didn't come from the factory staggered.

the wheel is nice... they are very similar to the rh c7's (i think htat is the name of them)... nice you should find out the wieght of the wheel though

is the weight of the wheel really an issue? cant i just get a chamber correction kit or something?

Thanks for your input.

These wheels look really busy to me. Split spokes look the best on 5-6 spokes. 7 is way too much.

nice wheel....good choice for your car.

Weight will make a difference in HP/performance for the car.

whats the reason?? the only thing im worried about is eventually getting a negative chamber.. are there chamber correction kits??

You need to read up. Negative camber to a point is good for you and Mazda's factory specs ask for negative camber, but too much is bad. Weight has no affect on camber and either does a staggered setup, but their detrimental effects on the RX-8's handling have been talked about time and time again on this forum.

the bigger ? is why would you put a 275 on the rear of the stock car?

as to stagger. it is a sticky at the top of the page..

You shouldn't have to worry about alignment/camber issue with new wheels...only when you change suspension components (spring/coilovers)....you would then need to go to an alignment shop to have things checked/adjusted.

the rx8's factory suspension can sort of teeter totter as far as adding or correcting camber. No camber correction kits are needed.

The polished lip ruins them; if they were all-black (how I like my women! ZING!), they'd be mucho betta.

they dont look too bad

They look nice, but if your going to drop that kind of money you should get something that will imporve perfromance, at least in IMO.

Reducing unsprung weight is probably the best NA performance mod you can do for the rx-8.
