That looks awesome and those wheels are really nice but what happens when you get some articulation coming in or out of a steep driveway?

The tires get busy with the fender up and down inclines, still a work in progress for sure.

^whoops, those have been sold sorry haha. A guy from craigslist picked them up, I think he said he was on here as well. Just keep you eyes open, they go for pretty cheap.^

I figured. Your car looks great, I just worry that your wheels are going to make contact and tear up your fenders. I like how you phrase that- get busy

anyway.. Nice car, keep her as clean as she is now

Mac you need some S4 tail lights on that thing man, the jdm ones with the red rotary turbo decal on them would look great *i know your car probably isnt turbo but the red decal would set them off

Ouch, notice its at the paint shop, I haven't even driven of the lot when I took that. Fresh this morning, before I took it the guy asked if I could raise it as it would make it easier to work on. So I did, I'm gonna drop it back tomorrow. Color is mazda winning blue stock on rx8s

Also the streched tires I hate, but I was in a position were I couldn't wait for the other ones to come in. I wish I could have, after I get it tuned and finish the body, I'm gonna get new tires, well maybe ill smoke these ones first.

The car actually is lowered. The roller already had Koni Yellows and Racing Beat springs when I bought it. I plan on buying Tein Flex in the future, but I don't think there is anything wrong with the height. I have Flex's on one of my Miata's and I won't put them any lower than the recommended height. Yea, it may not be esthetically pleasing, but the car is a street car. I like to drive it fast and at the limit. On the street where roads are bumpy, suspension travel is crucial. I'd rather be able to go fast over bumps than have my car look cool and putz around. Hell, even the race tracks in New England aren't the smoothest. New Hampshire is a great example.
