I saw both Top Gear's, they are a old episode, but I am glad that they are showing them on BBC America. I have been waiting to see if they are going to show the new mustang KR edition? There was also a rumor that they are going to bring the show here to America's shores. I hope so.

There was a article in Modified mag that I did not agree with. The editor was quoted as saying "Just because the RX-8 lacks potential in the horsepower department doesn't mean it can't be a fun corner carver." I think that the 8 is a great start. Better then any Honda out there.

Knight Rider was a joke. I wish that they could have done more to the series. I hope that they improve it. I love the car I just wish that it was not one long Ford commercial. Maybe we could make the car not so dang slow that a crossover was able to give chase. I mean after all that Mustang KR should have been able to beat the chase car hands down.

Very little difference in mileage, but a lot more rubber on the road.
Now these Work wheels are on the other hand (245 front/275 rears). . . . . they RUINED my mileage.
Time for Ebay!!!

+1 for 245/40/18. My last two sets have been 245's and it's a GREAT fit for our wheels

I have heavy as 19's with a staggered setup and I can almost guarantee that my car gets more miles per tank than most 8's out there....what I mean to say is, there more to it than just tires, but they can make a slight different....."ruined" though...I would like to hear what happened.
I was even thinking about buying that set off you cause I have always liked those wheels...maybe sell my volks since it doesn't look like it will matter what wheels are on the RXZ88M when/if it sells.
