Upgrading Wheels and Tires, 2004 RX8

Hello,

I am the original owner of a 2004 RX8. It has stock wheels. Will the tires and wheels below work without any modifications to my car. They are staggered.

Wheel Spec is 5x114 19"x9" ET+20 Fronts, and 19"x10" ET+20 Rears.
Tires Spec is 245/35R19 Fronts, and 275/35R19 Rears.

I am buying them used and only use my RX8 in the summer now.

Please let me know.

Joe

Thank you. Do you have an idea on the kind of modifications I would need, bolts, wheel well? Much appreciated.

20 offset 9" wheels will rub in the front at lock. I don't know about the rear but would assume you need to roll the fender at least.

Don't buy this set it makes no sense for this car.

It'll rub. Your offset is too aggressive and rear tires too wide.
