This RX8 wheel and tire combo is our STU competition combo....max street grip that can do true dual duty as your street and autocross and track day setup. Nothing comes close to this combo for price and weight and strength in a street tire combo that gives you max grip. First, the wheel...lighter and less expensive than SSRs in this size at only 17.4 pounds for 9.5 inches wide. Don't be fooled into running the staggard front and rear wheel sizes so popular on the net, if setting up your RX8 for STU competition or track work this is the max size rim for all FOUR corners that is super light, super strong, and less money than ALL other choices in this size. Nothing else comes close to this combination of ultra light weight and strength (Rolling Rim technology used to make these rims results in grain alignment just like in forged wheels for greater strength than is available from mere cast wheels but at much lower cost than forged wheels). Silver color only. See OUR forum RX8 section for pictures of these on our own RX8.. Narrow extended length lugs are recommended (see McGard Spline Drive lugs or our forged lugs here on our website). See pictures of these on our MazdaSport Magazine project car...on THIS WEBSITE in our forum wheel gallery. Note that center caps not included but available separately on this website. This combo includes FOUR RP-F1 rims professionally mounted and balanced with four Falken Rt615s ready to bolt up to your Rx8 and the 73/67 hub rings are included. Just a notch below a dedicated race tire, the Falken Azenis Sport RT-615 is the tire to have if you wish to dominate your SCCA Street Tire class but NOTE the Falken Azenis Sport runs wider than most tires with the same size specs and fitting this big combo will take a little rear lip fender roll if your are lowered or not running much camber.
