Yes, this is my car.

I had very bad comments on this site about these rims, but only great comments elsewhere.

Mugatu, stop spreading your jealousy here. I know the cost of one of my rim is your annual income, but don't lose faith in life only for that, man!

I am truly devoted to your cause.

well i know there was a point to this thread when i started reading it...but after about three posts it lost it's way.

ah well i am curious as to what number you put down compared to a stock rx-8. the rims aren't my taste but no big deal they dont' look all that bad.....everyone has different taste..thats why you have them and i don't. dunno why everyone jumped all over you. hehe but maybe that's their "thing"..hehe different strokes for different folks and all that....

LOL when khtm said he was going to do something about it I thought that was a photochop, I mean who in their right mind puts those rims on a classy car like the 8, but I guess I was wrong

But I guess if you can't hear the people laughing at you as you drive by its all good.

Actually, you and other brainwashed freaks are the only people who don't find the car just plain gorgeous with these rims.

And... usually when you're the only one laughing in the place, it may be time to ask yourself few questions.

I appreciate both that you admire my skills, and that you you would pay $80,000 for one rim. You sir, are amazing.

did you have your speedometer recalibrated? what about bigger brakes? I personally could care less who has what wheels on their car, but even a mild enthusiast knows that adding bigger wheels adds weight, and weight is the enemy. You can spout off how much money you spent, and how you can't tell a difference or whatever, but when you do that you only prove that you're ignorant and that you're compensating for something, good for you! :D

There is 3 possible answers:

1. People cannot afford expensive rims, so they are plain jealous.

2. Everyone at school is telling them that 20's rims is automatically Pimp-SUV-Bling. And pimp is not cool. So am i.

3. They are so minded on lightweight mods on there car, they cannot EVEN imagine people who actually increase weight without commiting suicide after that.


It's a discussion forum. It's internet. It's life.


But pretty funny, if you ask me.

Of course.

Please teach me, Master.

I repeat:

20's on a DAILY DRIVER RX8 ::: IT'S ABSOLUTELY OK.

Of course it may have BARELY NOTICEABLE changes on brake, acceleration, etc... BUT


I CAN'T FEEL IT.


Neither 3 others rx-8 owners who tried my car.


You know when i feel the change ? When i put A/C. THAT'S a f*uckin change. Got the picture ?

You got fiber carbon 5lbs rims ? Good for you. If you can go 2mph faster and you,re happy with it, fine. But don't spread the word on this site that 20's will ruin the ride: it's NOT true and absolutely misleading for new members.

Oh I can afford it, I just choose to spend money in other places, like my home, vacations, etc. I feel no reason to bling out something like rims so I can brag how much they cost. I'm not superficial.

and why stop at 20s? might as well put 30 inchers on there and be the coolest person in the whole wide world.

ha ha jealousy? too funny man...the majority of the people on this forum are pretty well off. Not every punk kid on this forum can afford a car like this. And why do you go off saying that cause your rims are expensive you think your pimp and everyone is jealous of you? Who the hell are you to say this??

It was POSSIBLE answer. "possible" (page 717 Roberts & Collins dictionary) means that it COULD.

There is kids on this site. Kids can't lie.
