Yeah. Well I just put them on right before the pics so the suspension needs to settle in. About 1/4" mebe. (probably less) I couldn't get the jack under the side skirt before I jacked the car up. When I brought it down it slid right out nicely. Those wheels and rubber were even hieght with the ones I already had so ne difference there.

And in Denver (CO basically) I'd never lower it. Streets and Driveways to buisiness are brutal. As are some ghetto speedbumps in parking lots.

The wheels look great and I was jumping with joy when I got out of the garage and saw them. Got a few compliments at the carwash on both the car and wheels.

Looks bad ass Jimmy. I love the look of it, looks ten times better as a single color too IMO. Maybe (if anything) 3"-6" wide center stripes all the way from front to back. That'd be *pimp* on a RX-8. Not sure what color, but it would look sweet....

Thanks. Not so sure about stripes on the RX-8. Have seen some on RX-8 club and it doesn't look good. One looked good where it was one stripe off-centered.

If I do anything it will be very subtle. More subtle than this.
