bolt pattern of RX-8 2004 GS

Hi guys,

Just want to know what is the exact bolt pattern of RX-8 2004 GS manual 6 speed. I know that it is 5X114.3 mm, but I don't know the offset. Is there any other number I need to know to be sure that other mag can fit. I plan to buy 17 inches instead of 18 inches for winter.

thanks

stock wheels are 18x8 +50. make sure the 17s clear the brake caliper.

check in the wheel section or try one of the regional forums that gets lots of snow / rain. I imagine this is a common question for them.

Dealer said me that 17 inches should clear galiper. 16 inches not, but 17 should be ok.

what's "GS" mean? RX8's come in Base, Sport, Touring, Grand Touring, and Shinka. Never heard of a "gs" RX8....

Here in Canada, we have GS or GT. The GT have leather inside the car, xenon light and some other feature I think. But this is the same engine.

Be careful with 17's...some fit no problem and others don't clear the brakes....depends on the dish of the wheel

Best to test fit one on the front before they mount them up...save you a lot of headaches
