Hotwheels

So I have found some wheels that I really like, but im afraid they won't fit my car? They are MAAS M28 and here is what they look like on my rx8. Any suggestions?

See ya!

thanks for all the bolt pattern information and offest.....you guys really helped me? This is exactly why people have to double post b/c if your not into the whole ricer I like to drift in empty parkin lots scene then you get slammed when you try to ask information. Anyway, a progressive (democratic) reply would be somthin like, TRY these set of wheels maybe instead of just getting plowed. I work in a professional atmosphere and I park in between a Lexus and a Mercedes every day at work. I just wanted to add some nice chrome wheels to my car. Not ghetto ninja stars, or blades or anything ridiculous. Just a five star chrome that stands out. This is exactly why I don't use this forum on a daily bases. B/c its all about taking out loans to put a 5k turbo on your car so you can get an extra 40hp on an 8. I mean seriously?

Why didn't you just get a Lexus or a Mercedez then? If what you want is to drive something similar to your buddies why didn't you just got a luxury car in the first place?

wvrotary, you posted pictures of the car w/wheels inviting comment. Sorry if the replies weren't to your liking, but thats the way it goes. If you just wanted information about wheel sizes, you could have just asked that. Or, better yet searched for the information. The answer is already out there.
Your car is a sports car, not a luxury car. Don't try to compete with them on their terms.

Its a good thing you don't come on this forum since you have the worst grammar I've seen and your not real knowledgeable about the car.

The wheels look terrible and you will achieve the look you are attempting to avoid. What is your budget? Are you looking to go with bigger tires or plan to us the stock tires?

I dont' like the wheels, they don't look good on an RX-8. (in my opinion)

what size wheels are you looking for?
what is the offset on those wheels?
bolt pattern?
How much do you want to spend on wheels? There are many options...
