Quick, I have a potential buy, but not 100% sure if it will fit properly..... 2005 RX8 6-speed, factory suspension....

f: 19x8.5 w/ 36 offset 225/35/19
r: 19x9.5 w/ 42 offset 245/35/19

also 255/40/19 tires...

Can someone please let me know if they will fit well, without issues...... thanks very much

Fronts will be fine. Rear you might need to roll the well if you use the 255's.Especially being a 40 series. Most people with that size would use a 35 series at the most.
The 245/35-19 tire in the back should be fine.
I have 265/35-18's on all four corners and I have no issues.

RX876

Ok, so the offset and tires (the ones on the wheels) will fit fine with no rub or rolling necessary... im assuming I won't need wheel spacers either... Maybe i could ask about a better price if he doesn't include the extra tires... sounds about right?

Easy_E1

iTrader: (2)

No wheel spacers.

One more question.... does my TPMS fit....

Hoping to get some tire help. I finally got some rims - 19X8.5 in front and 19X9.5 in rear. Just wondering what tire size is best? I would like to lower it in the future (maybe some tein springs) too, and would like them to clear okay. Thanks!!!

TopGear8

iTrader: (3)

^245's in front and 275's in the rear would be a good set up. As for if they will fit with some tein springs, it depends on what the offset is.

interog8

Thanks!! Offset is +45mm. How big of a sidewall would you recommend?

TopGear8

iTrader: (3)

^In the rear get a 275/35. For the front I would say a 245/40.

interog8

Awesome!! Thanks TG, I appreciate it

What kind of width and offset should I get for my wheels if I want it perfectly flushed with the fenders?

Thanks.

w/those tires?

they're gonna be stretched - and the widest i've seen w/that profile is 18x9.5

i'm not experienced w/stretched tire fitments - best to ask imput1234

MrX8503

Alright I take that back, what would be a perfect fit for that tire then?

If you are talking about stretching 225/45 on 9.5" wide wheel. You'll be fine, thats a good small stretch.

If you dont want to do that much of a stretch, a 255 will fit nicely, up to 275 being the widest.


If you are talking about fitting a tire that is 225 with a wheel 8" will be the best bet. But like I said you can stretch the tire if you want.

I personally would not recommend stretching a 225 on anything bigger than 9.5" but people do it all the time, and are fine.
