I love my 8 red so I don't want to change the color...

Maybe someone will know the cost...of the calipers and rotors.

Bump for a great set of wheels!! You'll love them~

Btw, be carefully with the rear tire size... it will rub if you go too wide... my rear camber are -4 to just miss the fender by 2mm...

Wow! -4 is crazy. How fast did you go through rear tires? I have +35 offset on 18x9.5 rims with 275/35/18 tires. Lowered on Tein S-Tech and had to roll rears. Stock alignment.

I dont drive the car much this year and put on maybe 1500KM on the new T1Rs that I have but the inside of the tires seem to wear down quite a bit already... My rear wheels are 19X10 so they are slighty wider but only running 255s with Mazdaspeed Coilovers, I've had my car on the trailer once and after he strapped the car down the lip of the wheel almost touched the fenders... really really close!!

Here's a pic of the rr camber!!

if you have a good accountant, you can know what your taxes will be and get a rough estimate. I'm assuming Shinx just spent it in advance.
