blue waffles taste like jalapeno's...

 

Nonsense! They always say it's too big or it won't fit but I always prove them wrong!

 

wut up peeps

 

blueberry waffles are indeed tasty.

 

ahh i tend to drive very aggressive though..

 

Hi Rory from the future!

 

why hello John from the past!

 

pfft...VIP's can run 215's on a 10.5

like rev said, it won't be much for performance, but it'll work.

245's on 10" isn't too bad.

 

man i dont have a spare or a fix it kit. Think thats very smart to strech them like so?

 

You like to drive aggressively? In that case, you don't really want a staggard setup.

If you look at the recommended specs Adam, a 245 works on a 9.5, maximum. Over that is stretching beyond the recommendation, but doesn't mean it can't or won't work even if it results in worst tire performance.

 

404 not found john

 

i was going for 18x8.5 silly tilly said i need 9.5 or go home and cry

There you go.

 

so I would loose a bit of performance with 245/40 on 9.5 width?

 

thankies

 

Well, to sum it up; the RX-8 was designed with the same tire size all around. If you go staggard then you will upset the neutral handling of the car be it oversteer or understeer. People likes staggard because it looks nice and makes it look like you're pushing 500whp but destroys handling.

 

I don't think so, no.

Wait, are we talking 245's all around, or staggered?

If staggered well, I'd have to agree with Ren

245 on a 9.5 is the slightest of stretches performance wouldnt really suffer much

 

But then again, I'd ignore all the disadvantages of a staggard setup and go with what everyone else is saying since it will make the 8 look so much nicer.

 

ren were not talking about stagers stagers are gay leave that to the cars that actually have power

 

If he's doing 9.5 in the rear then I guarantee you that it's going to be a staggard setup.

 

i dont want a staggered setup never did, pain in the *** and cant rotate the wheels. I was going to do same size all around. Hopefully the rp03's 18x9.5 +38? wont be too expensive from tirerack

 

i heard you did 9.5 in the rear once john why don't you tell us how it felt
