theyre forged boyde coddington wheels.

i was trying to sell them locally a few months ago before i stuck them on the FD. i was asking 1400 for them and nobody wanted them. so i just refinished them and stuck them on the car.

I've been looking everywhere for a set of side defusers, where did you get those? cost? I found some on rhd japan but they wanted over $300 for the shipping alone.

i know this is post pics of wheel fitment, but i figured better here then the tech questions. If i wanted to run 18x10 all around, what fender would work? will the feed 20mm fenders work? can i achieve this with just a role or flare? grateful for any input thanks!

Yes, 18x10 will fit stock body.

Offset (and negative camber) will determine how wide of a tire you can run.

+45 offset would be the ideal set up and allow 18x10 +45 with 265/35-18 all around with no changes to alignment or body.

Well you *might* have to add some negative camber in front or roll the front fender lip under, but not both like a more aggressive fitment.

I run 18x10.5 +38 265/35-18 all around because I couldn't find a higher offset rim I liked/could afford.

I had to roll my front fender lip under and car already had max front camber from auto-x.

Have you seen DCUPS old car? I think his rears might have been flared just a tad though, and I think he was stretching his tires quite a bit (not sure what you wanted with that). He had a pretty aggressive setup.

Not a fan of the color, haven't seen an RX7 pull off a light blue/tiff blue very well yet, I don't think those colors are flattering. Props for being different tho and doing your thing.

It went from a show/drift style look to a more ready to hit button willow/Leguna Seca look.

It fits really well with the stance of the car too.
