I Came SOOOOOO Close to buying Gold RPF1's for my car instead of Silver, in retrospect I kind of regret it.

Hi,
The Bridgestone 050A's on my NC2 are nearing the end of a usable life an as such I am open to suggestions for replacements, any input would be greatly appreciated, an indication of 'wear' I am, pardon the pun, with constant monitoring, rotation and three alignments (all showing even wear) these tyres will see 35,000klms (all on roads). I am interested in size options, impressions of RFT's etc.
Thanks in advance.
Greg.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

Patrick, what are the tyre specs and have you adjusted the height of the car. I ask because I have set of the same rims , just waiting for the existing tyres to run low . Then i plan to put the rx8 rims and tyres on.

Those gold RPF1's look the goods.

Just bought some 16x8 +40 BBS RS, going to rebuild them and put them on the NC.

that is going to look nice. I believe 'natee' from clubRoadster was using 16x9 +33
Do you plan on slamming the NC with the 16" BBS RS? Any colour in mind or keeping it silver?
