    Rx-8 Wheels?

    I had checked into these a few months back. They are 18x8 with a 50mm offset(same bolt pattern as P5 as well), and from what I gathered off the RX-8 forum they weigh about 19lbs. Hope this helps! Later! Oh yeah, you will need to go with a 215/35/18, and more than likely will need to...

    18" wheel & spring opinions please!

    I would like a little feedback on what I'm about to do. I have a white P5 that I will be lowering and upgrading wheels/tires in a couple of weeks. I am really liking the Volk CE28 look-a-like wheels by G-Racing/ REV wheels, and was thinking of this wheel in say 18" with a 215/35 in maybe Gold...

    RX-8 rims on P5.....

    Thanks for the input. As I mentioned, I was just curious to see if anyone had attempted this fitment, and what the results might have been. I was cruizing through the RX-8 forum the other night and saw several sets of rims for sale for what seemed a reasonable price. I just thought they would...

    RX-8 rims on P5.....

    Just curious. Has anyone considered putting the 18x8 RX-8 wheels on their P5? Found out that they are same bolt pattern as P5 with a 50mm offset, and weigh approx. 20lbs. I know the tire pressure monitors would need to be removed, but other than that it should be do-able. I'm thinking they...

    How many miles do you have?

    Purchased my P5 Aug 22, 2002. Total miles= 50,789 and climbing. I traded in a 2000 Xterra 4wd when I bought my P5, and it had 91,000 miles in 2 years time.

    Stock P5 Tires

    You are exactly right mazdadan, my Dunlops were a nightmare in the rain (w/47k on them) as well, and not worth an accident to get 5-10k more miles out of them. Sweet truck btw, and fantastic engine. If you haven't already, you should check out what Banks engineering can do with your motor...

    Stock P5 Tires

    Got 47k out of OE Dunlops with only 2 rotations(not recommending this schedule, it just happened that way), and just replaced with Kumho 712 Supra's. The tires actually wore very evenly despite my bad rotation schedule, and i probably could have gone another 5k on them, but I'm on the road...

    KMac- I'm not sure if he had any settling prob's or not, but the next time I see him I will ask. I wish I could be of more help.

    Sprint Performance Springs???

    RazorP5, you wouldn't be biased towards the Tein's would you? Just kidding. I know the drop is like 1.8"-F, and 1.5"-R, does the car sit even, or is the front slightly lower than the back. This has been my concern, all the P5's I've seen with the eibach's, for example, seem to sit a tad lower...

    Sprint Performance Springs???

    I haven't tried these yet, but there is a guy near me that has these springs on his P5 w/ 17inch 5Zigen Fireball's and the car looks great. There is maybe a one finger gap b/t the top of the tire and the fender. When he is driving it looks like the car is sitting right on the tire. Nice! I...

    looking for a tire of 195/50/16

    I have a tire for you. One brand new Dunlop (OE) SP5000, 195/50/16. How about $75 plus shipping, or make offer. My insurance company insisted that they purchase a new tire after I had a run-in with a curb a few months back, never used b/c tires were at the end of their useful life. Let me...
