Will It Fit Thread

I am THAT guy
iTrader: (1)
^+1 been asking that for a couple months now.
Considering tilt has run 19x11.5 with close to teen offsets i'm pretty sure someone can sacrifice width n' go for gusto on offsets. Thing is people pride themselves too much in the package deal of having both WIDE wheels w/LOW offsets.
Imo, someone could run neg offsets on a stock body (rolled, pulled n' shaved) but they'll have to be like 9wide or something. 10 wide would be ambitious...but not impossible...

Enkei PF01 18x10.5 +38, 5x114.3 by Derek C. › WheelFlip.com

I guess I was assuming he was dropped already, isn't everyone with an 8 dropped Either way, it's not a bad deal, if he is willing drop his car as well. Your right though, would look funny as hell at stock height.

May the gurus spare the whips:
18x8.5 +47 front, 18x9.5 +38 rear
yokohama s-drive tires, 205/40/18 front, 225/35/18 rear, tires have camber wear.
bolt pattern is 5x114.3
work emotions, will it fit and to what extent will modifications be needed (ie. fenders). Have coils.

I found a set of mint Work VS-SS in
18x8 +33 F
18x9 +33 R
I am on stock suspension. Currently I have different 18x8.5 +45 rims with 245/40 tires. I was looking to swap the tires over since I already have them and plenty of tread.
Are the offsets too much if I install coilovers next summer and lower it? Anyone know? Thanks!

Powdercoating costs you another 4 to 5 bills if done by a professional. Not bad, and you can get any color you want. Something to keep in mind when looking for a used set.

18x9.5 +15 all around. 245/40/18 tires all around (MB BATTLES)
My 8 will be sitting on Tein S-Tech springs with Koni Yellows
Will I need to roll the fenders?
Any other recommendations will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the helpful replies guys! I figured it would fit, but the added work to get it proper shouldn't be too much of a hassle.
Will I have any issues turning with that setup once I get my fenders rolled?

As far as turning, that is a seperate issue, you mean turning in general, or performance, because if it's performance you're after, I wouldn't do this setup to begin with.

Hey,
Just bought an 05 RX8 GT. I had a civic with 18" wheels with 225/40/18 tires with +40 offset. I noticed they recommend 225/45/18. The wheels and tires and pretty much brand new. Is it alright to put them on rx8 or would you recommend I buy new tires.
