Anyone here running 400+ hp on stock rims?
...check your rims if they are the first style 16x8... there were 2 versions that looked the same from front but supposedly one was prone to cracking. From the back they looked different but I forgot how to tell identify the bad ones..........

Just get Nitto Drags on the rear and you will be fine. I run mine on the street. I love my nitto dr's. 245/50. They last about 10,000 miles, if you dont do to many burnouts. My nitto's tend to outlast all of my motors. haha but that is another story

How many 7's have you bought NEW at the dealer? Fewer than I have I'm sure. I'm pretty sure that is more significant than when I joined a forum wouldn't you agree?
The reason our cars are getting hosed on re-sale is because Jr. is turning them into ghetto cruisers with all his 1337 MoDz !!!!!1!!!!!11!!!! Jest gOtZ me SuM WhAcK RimZ!!! !!!!Eleventy ONE!!!!! Lots of people with money see Eminem Whigger in his Rex and assume it's a Ricer machine.
Speak English Not "New-Bonics". "Rims" are parts of WHEELS. It is also something Ricers do to each other as in "*******".
Have a nice day

"Eminem" wiggers car is in the process of going back to stock.. the body, the hood, everything. I could careless what the body of the car looks like (AS LONG AS IT LOOKS NICE - i.e. same color bumpers, fitment, etc).. I rather have the full kit, or the stock look rather than bits and pieces.
Obviously I don't give a **** about resale - I didn't purchase the car with the intent to resale it... and if that's your job, you can go screw yourself for using the RX-7 as a means of profit, rather than enjoying the full potential of the engine that mods can give you.
I don't really know why you decided to even post your useless nonsense on the forum, your opinion is just that... YOUR OPINION. I'm sure as hell not going to give a rats *** if you're not making an extra $2000 on your car because Jr over here decided to throw a body kit on it. My car had the single long before any body mods, and the only reason the C-west rear is on it is because I didn't have a stock bumper to throw on at the time.
Besides... here are two nice looking cars from SS8 - ALL RICED OUT BY WHACK *** EMINEM WIGGER JR.... Resale... the car is 10-12 years old, originated from $32,000 down to $12,000. $20,000 of depreciation in 12 years isn't too bad IMO.
If you want to keep your ride stock, then do it. I have several friends who enjoy the stock body rather than putting an aftermarket kit on it... once again.. your opinion. Mommy and daddy didn't buy my car, and I'll sure as hell do whatever I want to it.
Excuse my english, Rims/Wheels - people got the point. I am not here on the forum to be politically correct, nor give an english class. I simply asked a question, that yielded quite a few simple responses.
