And someone else asked this already but no answer really. But why the different offsets front to back? Is the back now further out than the front? Does that change the handling at all?

It's just the preference of the guy who bought it in the first place, the rx-8 can handle +25 in the front as well too, just a wider stance, don't think us as average drivers'd really notice the handling difference.

it's gonna give like -2 degrees camber, but it'll be fine after an alignment, i did mine like 3 weeks ago.

I'm looking to get 19's in the future. Will I be able to do 19x8.5 on stock springs without any rubbing issues (depending on offset)?

^Dezau, thanks for all your feedback, man. I'm kind of a newb when it comes to wheels and such. So technically, if I were to go with a wider rim, like maybe 19x9.5, I would not need as much of an offset to get it to look flush? How wide could I go without rubbing?

ON a serious note: I'm sure those dents are painful to look at now but knowing you, you'll have it back in prestine condition soon.
