Here's my BB Rx-8 with gunmetal Volk Gt-N's 18x8 all around (thanks again redvelocity) with a conservative 1/2 inch drop from Racing Beat...As you can see the RB drop will still give you one hell of a gap.

 

looks really good. maybe some better pics on a better day. This weekend the weather was pretty bad.

 

drop it more!. wish u went lil wider... thats just me =)

 

...the gap looks huge man. is 0.5 inch suppose to be like that?

 

looks good bro, congrats on some great rims..

 

yup thats what it looks like with those springs...looks stock to me too, but you can feel the difference when you drive the car espically with the sways.

 

did you tighten the suspension bolts to spec with the car on the ground or up in the air? all of those bolts should be tightened with teh full weight of the car on the suspension. Lower shock bolt/sway bar bolts/ upper a-arm bolts especially. It looks to me like it was up in the air...i have the same springs (albeit with konis) and the difference in ride height is much bigger. With my stock shocks i remember the gap being about 1 1/2 to 2 fingers high above the tire.

 

yup your right, it was up in the air...I never realized that but thank you for the advice I appreciate it. So hopefully I can cut some of my gap then right if I just tighten the bolts? Also what happens if I don't, well it go down eventually? Thanks silverarrow.

 

First untighten them all (on the ground is fine, turning the wheels to full lock will help you get to teh bolts). then reverse the procedure, and tighten them all to spec, i would push down on all four corners (bounce it) while they are loose, this will help, and once they settle the gap will lessen even more. No prob.

 

are those thinner tires than stock too ?

 

I had RB's with stock rims. I think it should be lower..........

 

great rims, love the blue pic, why have i never seen this thread before. do you have any more pictures

 

nice rims and post more pics after you fix it!!
