Pushin' Mediocre!
Looking for a setup that is street focused, but would fair well on a track if I ever decide to do so. I want to be very clear, I am not willing to roll, pull, or cut any part of my car yet, so these HAVE to fit without fender modification along with zero camber adjustments. I'm not expecting these to be perfectly flush, but I do want it to look more aggressive than the stock car. I'll eventually lower it, lets say an inch F&R to be safe (will likely be less). Obviously, I'm trying to avoid rubbing under any and all circumstances. Help me push the limits of mediocre!
Here are the wheel/tire sizes I'm considering: 17x8.5 +40 245/45/17 18x8.5 +40 245/40 18 18x8.5 +45 245/40/18 17x9 +45 anything but 255/40/17, diameter is too small for my taste, even though I know this setup is ideal. 18x9 +45 255/40/18 If I'm correct, 245/45/17 and 255/40/18 have a slightly larger diameter than stock, depending on tire, but that's fine with me as long as there are no rubbing issues, as is the price of 255/40/18 if I decide to go that route. Care to offer up any opinions/sell me on one of these combos? |

not a chance. You could maybe run that 265/30/19 in the rear if you dont lower your car that much. I personally wouldn't run wider than a 255/30. There's no point. You have to realize that a x10.5 +25 sticks out 19mm more than a x10 +38.

18x9.5 +38 with 265/35 all around ?
and im lowered on coilovers, will this fit without neg camber and will i have to roll the fenders? |
Hey guys, without reading the whole thread, will a set of 20x8.5 wheels with I think a 35mm offset and 255/35/20 rubber fit on the rx8? The bolt pattern is good.
I have these wheels on my other car which I'm thinking of selling. If they fit on the rx, I might keep em. Did a quick PhotoShop mockup: 20" Foose Spanks https://whaqeq.bn1301.livefilestore....RX8.jpg?psid=1 |
Hey. I didn't read your whole question. Sure they'll fit

I could always just try them on.. I reckon.

18x8.5 offset +30 or 18x8.5 offset +40. My friend is asking for help with picking some rims for her 2011 RX-8 and I'm trying to make sure it the wheels with look alright.

Any rubbing issues with this combination without any fender work?
Work Emotion XD9 - 18x9 +38 Hankook Ventus V12 Evo - 255/45/18 Swift Sport Springs 0.8" Drop F/R Thanks guys. P.S. Any other springs you guys might suggest? I'm very picky on what I put on my car, and most people seem to like Swift to keep good handling characteristics without disturbing the suspension geometry while giving a decent drop... As far as I know, any drop past an inch disturbs the the RX-8s handling. |
That tire is wrong.

Will 18x10 all around XXr rims with a offset of +25 fit on a RX8 2004? If so what would be the best tires to put on it? Not dropped stock everything
