lzhmax, I'm using the AD08s as track tires so their life will be pretty small. For street only driving, I'm not really sure. They have a soft compound so it's not a long-life tire (should be comparable to other max performance summer tires).

The AD08s should last that long assuming you have an alignment which isn't too aggressive. Another tire to consider is the Nitto NT05 as well. And both of these hold up fairly well at track driving. I haven't driven the NT05s yet but the AD08s only start to overheat when pushed really hard for a few consecutive laps.

Where did you get the car cover? I recently bought an r3 and I am getting tired of all the people going near the car to look at it when I leave it in my parking space. I live near a Junior High, and the kids have been keying cars regularly.
I had a brand new 06 Civic coupe the first week it came out, and it was keyed the same day front - back. I don't want it to happen again. lol

TPMS Compatibility w/S2 Aftermarket Wheels
Everyone still using the TPMS w/their aftermarket wheels? Anyone encounter any compatibility issues?
BTW, love the R3 pix... May pull the trigger on an R3 w/in the next couple months.

I have TPMS sensors in both my RPF1s and PF01s. There are no problems as the RX8 "learns" the new sensors very quickly.

Hey guys. I ordered 19x8 (front) and 19x9.5 (rear) with the +45 offset. Any help on tire size. I was thinking 245/40/19 or 245/35/19 front and a 275/35/19 rear. Also waiting for my Tein H.Tech springs to get in and my 08 rear struts. Any help would be nice. Then I will post some pics of my R3. Also, I am willing to sell my factory wheels. They have 225/40/19 Kumho Ecsta SPT new rubber on all four w/sensors. PM if any questions or answers to my tire sizes.
