i don't doubt the quality of the CF, it's just too much for my taste. i'm not big on CF but i think it definitely looks better on the outside of the car in general.

go with a 40 series... 215/40.. it'll feel better.. youll feel EVERYTHING w/ 35 series.. and it's easier to break/bend rims.
40 series it is. I have bent a rim before and i dont want to do that again.
Nah Greg, im not going to "SLAM" it like you. Crazy.

215/35 here. It's hard to tell how harsh of a ride they are cause I'm also on the Ksports. I don't mind it though but I'm sure my back will in a few years.

Yeah i'm the Spanish Dude that is running 215/35/18 Nankang Ultra Sport NS-II shoes on RX-8 18X8 Wheels lol lol lol lol.. i love my 35 Series tires my car feels awesome atleast i like the way it feels and performs. i also think 205 is not wide enough, when my tires are gone i'm going to put 225's or 235's with 15mm Spacers and 35 or 40 profile tires to gain a bit of more grip, but til today i'm happy with what i'm currently running...

About the tires...are you gonna run 18's or 17's? I'm running 18's and I have 215/35 series. It's not too bad.

It's finally done today, after a month of doing research, getting parts, returning things that need not have been returned (I'm really tired of watching tracking numbers and waiting for fedex/u[s, now), my MSP's first major upgrade/overhaul/tune is done.
Now installed and working wonderfully are the following: GT28RS, CustomMSP SMIC, Turbohoses Hardpipes, Front and rear AWR motor mounts, and AWR side motor mount inserts.
Running at 7psi controlled with a manual boost controller, stock exhaust (ran out of money for the time being), and stock ECU, my MSP made 201hp with a very nice curve (that I cant show yet because my scanner aint working at the moment) and nice rich A/F to protect my soon-to-be-forged-but-currently-not internals.
The urge to turn up the boost and make more, easy hp is pretty strong but I've done enough research to know that I'm not gonna even think about that until I've built up the engine internals a bit.
