What's your camber. Get the rears rolled/pulled, you should be fine. Your fitment looks good.

^Yeah lets see some more pics of the wheels.

oh yeah i forgot to mention ive got the stock 16s and suspension that comes with sport rx8s. Eventually i plan on moving on to eibach lowering springs when i trade in my rx8 for a manual 8 next year.

No you need 5x114.3 instead of 5x100. http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...7df0a319d0e3b1 These will work if you get the hub resized though. http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...73e2ce505b3357 These will fit but they are bronze.

How about this, Whats the best offset for a 18x9.5 , and a 18x10. I need i do have a sustec five so its fully adjustable.
Thanks

i think +38 or +40 would work fine. Depends on profile of tire as well.

Willicuddy 01-05-2009 02:01 PM

Will 245/50/18 fit on stock wheels??? (Winter Tires)

Car is lowered on Tein Basic Coilovers (Tein S-Tech specs atm).

Anyone know???

Also, would 18x8 +35 work with 245/45/18 (Winter Tires) with out rubbing of course???

TopGear8 01-05-2009 03:14 PM

^If you are lowered that tire might be a little tall, but i'm not exactly sure. But yes 18X8 +35 will fit without rubbing if you are on 245/45's

Yeah Looks like I need a roll. Now to find someone in town I can trust to do this. Kill me.

just rent a roller from online and do it yourself.

Riken 01-06-2009 06:37 PM

I posted on my other thread but im sorry for the 2x post. what you guys think, will I still need to roll with 265/35/19? I scured to stay at 275 because of what happened.

imput1234 01-07-2009 03:13 AM

It shouldn't but I would suggest to just get it rolled, it would be a lot cheaper.

SO if Im still going to get them rolled should I then stay with 275? Or is 265 a safe # to stay at?

lokaldisruption 01-07-2009 09:15 AM

any body no if a sub box with these dimensions would fit into an 04 rx8?

height 14 inches
width 16.5 inches

will it fit???

265 is a safe number and should work w/out a roll on a +45 offset

Riken 01-07-2009 11:47 AM

265 35 is ok right? No rollers needed?

J8635621 01-07-2009 12:08 PM

I didn't think people needed a roll with 275 on a +45? All the people with the 9.5 +45 RPF1 and 275s had to roll?

TopGear8 01-07-2009 12:25 PM

^No the people with the RPF1's dont have to roll. But those are 18's. Riken's wheels are 19's.

J8635621 01-07-2009 12:33 PM

Shouldn't the outer diameter of the tire/wheel be the same hence no difference? edit: I see that he has 275/35 instead of going to 275/30. Ok.

275 should be fine. 265 will work with out a roll.

Atilla 01-07-2009 01:07 PM

whoops - forgot to respond - yeah, 265/35 should work w/out a roll on +45

Riken 01-07-2009 01:09 PM

Ok now I just have to see where I can get some 265 30 or 35 locally

imput1234 01-07-2009 01:23 PM

I still think you should just roll lol

His offset is +35
