LOL.... "wre tard ded"

Guess he didn't find the "other" thread ;)

Why are you all even posting in the "will it fit" thread if you know the questions are going to be aimed towards stance.
The 8 is slow, handles alright. Its just a daily to most people. If I want functionality I'll go drive my s14.

dannobre 09-28-2013 10:39 PM

Because this IS the "will it fit " thread....not the stupid stance can we hack the car to make it fit "agressive thread"

inthetwisties 09-28-2013 11:06 PM

The "aggressive thread" is for pictures, not questions about fitment.
Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make me upset...so carry on.

Now you are just trolling

inthetwisties 09-29-2013 12:13 AM

A little. But the question still remains.

dannobre 09-29-2013 11:22 AM

OK.....If you want some real help...you are going to have to post up the information we would need to help you

So you have 10" wheels...what diameter and offset are they? So far we can't tell you much except your choice of tire sizes for a 10" wheel are not usual

Trying to be nice on a Sunday Morning...don't dissapoint me with more crap responses :)

If the dunce hat fits, then wear it over in the aggressive wheel fitment thread

They advise people how to be stoopid in there all the time

To an extent. We usually don't deal with people who know nothing about fitment in our thread. If you don't know what offset means you shouldn't try to stance your car. LOL

I've had aggressively fitted cars before, just never an 8. I don't think its too farfetched to ask about front fitment.

Wheels are 18x10 +12 for the front. Tires are 225/45. I have 245/35's as well but I don't really want to run that short of a sidewall being in wv.

TeamRX8 09-29-2013 08:13 PM

18x10 +45 with 285/30-18 tires bolts on with zero mods and no rubbing

Only a total maroon doesn't consider that an aggressive stance

I would spend the extra money and get 40 sidewall tires. You will have issues with that tall of a tire. 245/35 would be your better option of the two. Fitment-wise that is.

skyscraper.

inthetwisties 09-29-2013 11:05 PM

Word. I don't care to buy new tires if I have to, but figure I'd see what I could get by with.

JonMc 10-01-2013 02:29 AM

I apologize in advance for not know much, but I found a deal on some 19x7.5" that I'm thinking about buying, just wondering if 7.5" is too narrow or if it would work with spacers? Any help is greatly appreciated. I don't have a lot of time to search for answers, and what searching I've done hasn't answered my question. I'm running a stock rx8 currently, with the 18" oem wheels. Eventually going to lower it but these wheels with tires are only 275 now. I can't figure out how to post photos on the mobile site so I'll try to post those tomorrow morning.

dannobre 10-01-2013 08:46 AM

Offset?

JonMc 10-01-2013 09:04 AM

They are the adr-24 phantom wheels, with 48mm offset.

JonMc 10-01-2013 09:17 AM

Actually the guy isn't sure if they're 48 or 42. Would either of those fit?

dannobre 10-01-2013 09:38 AM

They will fit...but they will be sunken in further than stock ( about 1/2")

With the narrower rims they won't allow you to run much wider than stock tires

You would need about 1" spacers to make them sit in a good spot

JonMc 10-01-2013 10:22 AM

Thank you, I appreciate the quick and helpful answer. Would the narrowness of them affect the ride and handling much? Or with stock tires would it be the same?

dannobre 10-01-2013 11:30 AM

With the 19's the sidewall will be a bit shorter...so a bit stiffer.

JonMc 10-01-2013 06:06 PM

Alright, again thanks for your help. I'm glad this site is here with a wealth of knowledge for Rx8 owners.

Vossen did not send me any offsets available for the rx8 :/

No Vossen wheel is actually that aggressive. The only issue is the don't come in sizes smaller than 19's for the nice concave ones.

ripla13 10-03-2013 07:07 PM

You guys think 18x9.5 +15et fronts and 18x11+15et rears will fit?
Also what tires? I was thinking 245/35-18 and 285/30-18?

dannobre 10-03-2013 07:29 PM

Define "fit". If you mean easily. ...no

If you mean if you pull fenders and trim the underliners...and run max camber...and stretch the tires....maybe ;)
