im probably going to get aftermarket wheels/tires... the whole nine yards. I just dont know what width wheels i should put on the back.. i know i want wider ones on the back. If you have aftermarket wheels on your rx8 and if theyre staggered.. let me know what the sizes are.

anyone got any suggestions for width???

thanks brian

A lot of people are running 9.5 in the rears some have even gone 10 with the fender rolled or wider with aftermarket fender flares. Not sure what offsets they were running though.
