Yeah, some of us common folks have to work at the crack of dawn

 

Who was at the top of HWY 9, Saratoga area, last night? I saw a galaxy grey RX8 with RPF1 rims. I waved, but didn't see who it was. I was in the Honda S2000.

 

Where's everybody?

 

i killed them...

 

I'm up and down a lot and can probably give you a ride. How do you like leaving LA at 4:30 am though?

 

Hey i'm down there with the 8 next week. Any meets that weekend?

 

There's a meet every week. We had a long drive last night that, except for the staging where we had to dodge some cops, turned out really good. 16 cars of which more than half were RX-8s.

Please dont' leave me alone with Rob......I've seen what he does to Leo and Matt...

 

its not what you have seen, but have you noticed they have been walking funny?!?

Rob, **** you too! :p

 

Maybe it has something to do with the carrot strap-on....

 

Ok i was thinking about getting new rims since mine are bent and so forth...

The question is the offset...

Current Wheel Specs Width 8 inches Offset 50 mm

New Wheel Specs Width 7.5 inches Offset 42mm

Inner Clearance: needs 14mm more

(the inside of the wheel to the strut housing)


Outer Position: needs 2mm more (position of the outside edge of the wheel)

Is there enough clearance for about half an inch on the inside of the wheel to the strut housing????

Why not get an 8" wide wheel?

 

I'm running 8 wide with 35mm offset, they fit fine.

 

The rims i am getting only come in a 7.5 width. I asked for an 8 but they had none to give.
Brian

 

It says you would need to add 15mm to both inside and outside more to verify it would fit..

If yours fits than what I am looking at will fit nicely.

76% of me likes it!

 

i run a 17 x 7.5 on my te-73, my offsets are perfect, ill have to read the sticker. but if you wanna see what it looks like just go to my site, the project rx8 is on there.

just run a 235/45/17....no larger then that, 245 is pushing it for a 7.5 for any kind of aggressive canyon driving.

but the car feels so much better now

 

That was me on hw9 the other day were u with all the other s2ks?

 

Yes. I was driving the Blue s2k with ugly wings. The drive was interesting. I waved....
