My wheels just showed up! Work Emotion XD9 in MBL:
Found a leak in my Fluidyne radiator so it's being swapped out for a new Koyo R1443N. Will post pics of the new wheels mounted later in the week

Some more updates... not the best pics cuz the car is still on the rack getting a few little things done before she comes home with me. Here's some pics test fitting the wheels and with the SakeBomb garage LED tail lights installed:
will post proper pics next week.

I used to run 18 x 9 ET 18 in the front (click my avatar for a pic), but your front wheels look like stick out further than mine did, so you're probably going to want to trim some of the soft (non-structural) metal towards the front of the wheel well, otherwise, your tires will probably rub when you turn. I had to use an air dremel on mine, but it only takes a few minutes per side. I also trimmed all four fenders to 1/8". My car's pretty low, so I also shifted the wiring harness so the right side front wheel doesn't tear it up.
From the pictures, the paint looks good, and it looks like the rear fenders were molded in nicely.

I have seen pics of it on websites and for some reason, it looks alot smaller and uglier.
But it looks really nice and stock looking on your car. I wish i would have gotten that instead of my PFS.
While the PFS is one of the best sounding for our cars, its loud and it drones like crazy on the highway.
Do you have a sound clip of your exhaust?

Thanks, yea I am happy with it... keep in mind I have a straight through borla muffer serving as a midpipe to keep the drone down, as seen here:
There's a video here on my blog from a lil while back but you can hear the note at least http://www.rx7blog.com/?p=35

Thanks, I wish I could take credit but JR from JR Fabrications did all the hard work. I'll find out the paint he used on the subframe... if anyone needs a great rotary mechanic in the trasure coast area PM me for his details.
