little con..... those wheels look ugly.... not to mention those particular ones look like they have been curbed more times that the guy in american history X....
also the problem w/ getting wheels painted the same color as your car is there are alot of different shades of red, and odds are, that red wont match yours, which will make it look even worse... what you want is a wheel color which will accent red ... heres my old red fc, white wheels look really good against red.. also, gunmetal works

i just dont know... i dont think they would look all that bad still...
look at this 240 (i think it looks good, even better on a FC, but i want to know what everyone thinks first)
oh also, i finaly got my presilencer on... i dont think it was done right, smells really weird...

the 19x8.5 w/ +30 offset for the front, and the 19x9.5 w/ a +22 offset for the rear sounds about right... but im not certain what fits under the rx8 wheel wells.... those offsets would work good on my fc

The words need to be short.
there will be no circles around the words RX-8. We will save that room for our club logo/abbreaviation.
SO let's hear it on what we want.
Also I need a list of who is in.
Of course if we get more than 5 people that would be great.

, be glad you didn't get tagged with lipstick today 
I thought about it but wasn't sure how easily it would come off and I didn't want you to get even with me tomorrow.

Zoo,
Maybe you can use someone elses for tomorrow, and then you can let them use yours for the next time.
You should go buy claybar though.
If don't get any, we'll work something out.
Remember, Autozone has a claybar kit for $10.

oh, and your rim question(s)....114 is our lug pattern. I don't think those offsets are right...don't seem big enough. I don't remember what I have...but it is either 19x8.5 (+30) and 19x9.5 (+36).....or +40 and +46. I'm leaning towards the 30/36....I tried to check on my wheels, but they are too dirty on the insdie of the lips to read them. I'll have to check in two weeks when I pull the wheels for autocross.
A for lug nuts....look at the ones you just bought. We have the same size as Honda.
