We need videos of your BRAP! Awesome stance with the wheels. Thank god you did not put Bling-Bling or oversized wheels on a classic rotary. One of the nicest 2dr. deuce around.

15x8's with a spacer? What offset are those? My 15x8 Eps would rub like crazy on the rear of my RX-2 but they are a very low offset, probably 0.

Do they rub @ the fronts at all?

Well the back didnt nead spacers at all but I had to put some on so it could match the front, the front was rubbing just a little against the coilovers so the spacers and new lug nuts from the tire shop fixed my problem.

Offset I have no idea what they are...
