Hey man, long time no see since h-a.net! Anyway sorry for not updating this thread but the wheels have been sold. Thanks for the interest!

Ok here are individual pics of the wheels. Never did get around to doing this before, sorry! You can click the pictures to see the full size version... Fronts: Rears:

Hey folks, I still have these! Haven't been real focused on selling but I want to move these quick. Taking any reasonable offers!

So yeah, not quite sure if this is the right section but figured I'd give it a shot. On my MS6, every once in a while when I start it up the DSC light comes on and stays on for a while. It then tends to shut off after about 15 minutes or so of driving. Doesn't seem to be any particular reason...

Sold my Miata and now I need to sell my summer wheels. I went for a slightly unique setup with these and really enjoyed it. Fronts: 15x7.5" 4x100 +34 wheel with 205/50-15 tire Rears: 15x8" 4x100 +36 wheel with 225/45-15 tire Had them on my car for only one season maybe 6k miles on em total...

Also as far as General UHP tires I'm not sure what exactly your preferences are in terms of traction, noise, tread life, etc. I came from a Miata with a stiff suspension and Hankook Z212 tires on it so the MS6 with Dunlop SP5000s that came on it when I bought it feels smooth as glass in...

Slots, holes or any other void in the surface of the rotor are NOT there for purposes of dissipating heat. Old-school race pads used to let off gas as they heated up which could form a bubble between the pad and rotor that contributed to fade. The holes/slots help remove this gas. But with...

When I messed with tire size comparisons it looks like 235/40-18 is a close match for the stock 215/45-18 size with a wider footprint. Specs for those tires list a measuring rim width of 8" which would be perfect for the RX-8 wheels. No idea on rubbing though, but I'm thinking about going...

I had a '99 Miata 10th Anniversary Edition that initially I thought I wanted to keep and supplement with a daily driver type vehicle. Even put a $500 deposit down to order a new '09 Honda Fit. When the Honda dealer got their first Fit in and started offering test drives, I checked it out and...

The dealer I bought my MS6 from had another car with the Mazdaspeed rims on it. http://www.oaklawnmazda.com/ Can't direct link to the page but search their used inventory. Oh and if you see a gray car stock # 11554 still listed that's mine now... :D

Never have been a fan of too-wide wheels with stretched tires. Just looks dumb. 'nuff said.

Changing only your rotors is not going to stop you any sooner. Different pad compounds stop you sooner. Slotted/drilled rotors on a street car are mostly for looks. But hey, if you like em....
