You should put them on now. I put Eibach pro plus kit (includes sway bars) on my car with wheels and tires, and I cannot qualify how much of a difference each made- just everything as a whole. I would do it differently next time. I would do wheels or springs first, then springs or wheels next, then the sway bars. This would allow me to see what each one did individually.

What size are those RX-8 wheels and tyres?
I wonder if my local car wreckers (automotive dismantlers) has a cheap set.
They look like they are an easy perfect fitment.

Actually, that's not a bad idea.

I had a dream that for some reason I bought Eibach springs and was so happy with them. Then, I realized that I'm going for coilovers.

This car handles surprisingly well in snow with snow tires. Drove back and forth to work (100 miles) today and had no issues. Amazing how well the traction control works.

Thanks!
Its painted with plasti dip. Lasts from 6 months to a couple years if maintained. Can be easily removed without damaging the original paint.
