I'm running RSR Down springs with tokico shocks. That's weird, I use to have H&R springs and they made my car lower than this RSR Down springs. If I was still running my H&R, I would have some rubbing issue with them.

*ccw do make different sizes. http://www.ccwheel.com/

Did you buy those from this forum? I really like them and would have picked them up, but I do not want to run a staggered set. They look real good on your car. Good luck.

If you pick up the November issue of Sport Compact Car, there's a '93 silver RX-7 entered in their Ultimate Street Car Challenge with 18x10 CCWs all around. If you call CCW up, they can pretty much make any size that you need.

They used to be extremely popular amongst FD road racers. Glad to see people are noticing again.

Don't bring that up!! (dayton) haha.
Actually they performs alot better than my previous setup, 245/45/16 all around. Maybe I feel that because I'm just a spirited street driver.
