    RX8 factory wheels are ET50 so will look a bit cack IMO they will sit in further than stock wheels (might be why no pics posted yet?), possibly if you had some 30mm bolt-on spacers they might look ok but I'm no wheel whore so something you would have to try I think to find out tbh,Just something I read the other day regards the ET50 offset,
    EDIT; just cleaned off the back off a stock wheel and its ET40 (if the 40 under the 61/2x16 is ET?)so might be ok with a 20mm bolt on?

    They'll hit the suspension without spacers, even more so if you have coilovers.

    I can't find a pic easily, but there are quite a few SXOC peeps using RX8 wheels.
    They look tidy IMHO but I'm not exactly a wheel whore

    Barry still has it, he's not far from me. It was bought with all the shite on, which he then removed and repainted the car. AFAIK it still looks like it did in the last pics with the RX8 wheels

    Yes I'm still about & I've still got the same 200

    Thanks for posting that thread Scott, I'd completely forgotten about that I think it needs a bit of an update!!!

    Still has the RX8 wheels on it, I run 25mm bolt on spacers and have never had a problem.

    Cheers Chris! It's changed a little since there, clear fronts & got a cf grill to go on as well. Will fit in when I spray my lights.
    I need to have a catch up on your motor, will have a read through ur build tread.

    In those pics its on standard shocks with Apex pprings. Im now running KYB AGX shocks & Eibach springs which bring the front down more.

    I'll get some new pics soon when its off the ramps!
