BTW...while we're talking about the RX-8...

2 years later, people are still stopping me and asking questions about
it!  Had a younger couple (of course, young to me is anyone under 50
<G>) look it over very closely while I was at Lowes last week...before
they left, the girl was trying to talk her husband into getting one!

And yesterday, on my way out of Wendy's with a Big Bacon Classic meal in
hand, a guy on a Harley (not me...the bike) stopped by and spent a half
hour familiarizing himself with it.

I still get looks, smiles and thumbs up at stop lights from Miata and
other Mazda owners...

Also, those BF Goodrich G-Force tires that I replaced the OE
Bridgestones with have just passed the mileage I had on the Bridgestones
when I replaced them, and still have more than 50% tread.  Still are
far quieter and better traction than the Bridgestones ever had. And
we've certainly had enough rain around here recently to test the
traction!  Bottom line, in my opinion, they are better in every respect,
and $60 cheaper...each!

Taking the RX-8 into the car doctor (read that "dealer") today for the
gas line and ball joint recalls....

How many miles do you have on your RX8 Harley? I got 20K on mine.
My ball joints were OK. Thanks for the tip on the tires. I also
need something quieter.

 Since the subject was brought up, Has any one checked out the TOYO's?
I need to buy new tires this week.  This group has all the answers!
Thanks, TP
