I get more confident on the ce28N now...
I still cannot decide :D.
MazdaSpeed is nice though. They are all Rays and they are all in similar price. I might get MazdaSpeed since everyother car can have TE37 and no one will put MazdaSpeed except RX-7 and RX-8s. I might have to see how much they are.
I will start hunting when I get my fat tax return

CE28N's all the way!!!
They are ridiculously light and look great. They also have a machined lip so they have that flashy-ness to it!!
I was considering those myself but have moved onto something else .......lol :D

It's official: I have ordered a set of SSR Professor's in the Super Black Coat. I decided after much confusion and deliberation to go with 18x8.5 with a +43 offset all the way around.
These have to be ordered from Japan as Cortc indicated. I am settling in for a 10 week wait (approximately). I think it will be worth it though.

Not critical... since I hope semislick will have enough grip to solve the very slight oversteer and on the street the oversteer is not really critical in the speed opeating :p . I think I will much prefer same size front and back

)I will put the stock 225's on until they wear out. I will then replace them with 245's (brand undetermined at this time).
Have 10 weeks gone by yet???
Have you got yours yet? What's the status? I'm dying to see pics of those bad boys on your black 8!

Yes, the ones in that picture are Super Black Coat.
It is somewhat unique, because depending on the lighting they can look like regular chrome, or they can look like a "shadowy" black. Sorry, don't know how else to describe it.
