Question What do you recommend?

I'm gonna be buying new wheels and tires today....

First off whats the stock 18" wheel measurements for the RX-8?

I'm looking at getting some BFgoodrich g-force T/A KDWs along with some Enkei RPF1s?

any thoughts or feedback? how well do staggered setups perform?

try looking there...

also, just my .02, but I would look a little more into tires wheels and prices before dropping that kind of cash, if you still dont even know what size you want, you may want to read up just a bit
