Mazdaspeed MS01
F:17x8 offset34mm R:17x9 offset35mm PCD 114.3/5
235/40 & 255/40 Bridgestone GridII ZR17's
Suspension: Front were KYB Coilovers, Rear were Bilstein Shocks & King Springs.
There was plenty of room at the rear, but the fronts must've been a millimetre away from the coilovers, though they never touched once.

19's are way too big. It'll make the rex look goofy as hell.
The front lip is a MLR splitter (same as Demonspeed). You can get it from www.teamfc3s.org. Looks like cbrock has the same one.

Here is a side pic of my car... nothing too special. They are 17x7 up front and 17x9 in the rear. Fronts are 215 series Potenzas and the rears are 275 series nitto 555r
and a shot of the rear
go here for more pics of the rear rims and tires... different points of view to see how that big of rim/tire combo actually look on an s5 T2.

I made the corner lens out of DIY light covers, cut at a 45 to give it a diamond look instead of a square. I then took some lexan to make a durable cover and more UV resistant. The grill was cut out using a dremel cutting wheel following a line that I had taped out. Turned out pretty good.

No spacers on mine... just a really weird offset... The funny thing is that when I bought my Konigs, I purchased 17x7 for all 4 corners. Then when I started to undertake my 20B installation, I searched high and low for a set of 9" rims that would fit on my FC and not cost me more than my motor. It just so happened I was able to find 2 17x9 Villains, just like my previous set. I was elated
took me forever to find any rim that would fit, let alone a rim that meant I didn't have to buy 4 brand new wheels.

Jason, try contacting Mike Lamonica. Here is his website: http://www.brfoundation.com/RX-7/
I don't know if he still makes them, but I think they were around $175 last I checked.
1FastT2, your car is so immaculate it blows my mind everytime I see it. Looks like it rolled off the showroom floor yesterday, except with 400hp.
