Kazera KZ-A wheels.
 
I've done multiple searches on google, this forum, site:rx8club.com, etc. But can't seem to find any info on what I'm looking for.
I am looking into purchasing a set of used Kazera KZ-A wheels.
The problem is I don't know what the bore is on it and if I need hubcentric rings for it to fit.
I know that gyeaboy (https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-parts-sale-wanted-44/wtt-so-cal-only-kazera-kz-silver-your-stock-18s-143412/) had them on his 8 and tried to send out a PM but just in case I thought I'd ask on the forum for others to help me out too.
I just want to make sure I can get these rims and be able to fit them on my car without hubcentric rings if possible. If not I'll get them but not be able to run them for ImportFaceOff next week end :(

And my bad, this should belong in the wheels section rather than the exterior.. If mod can move it, it'd be greatly appreciated. I guess that's what happens when I don't get more than 2 hours of sleep :facepalm:

Hubcentric rings aren't absolutely necessary, their function is just to center the wheel on the hub but with the conical shape of lug nuts and/or the lug nut holes along with a little maneuvering of your own you should be able to satisfactorily center the wheel.

I had those on my 8 prior to my Work's, they should be fine with or w/o rings.

Thanks guys :)
The ones that I am looking at have a universal 5x100 and 5x114.3 lug.
Does anyone know what the width they come in?
The guy selling them isn't sure and I want a rough idea before I make a 1hr trip up there to check them out.
I'm looking for something in the 18x8 and 18x9 range.

I believe mine are 18x8.5 I can look tonight. Make sure you get the offset you want I think mine are +45 (I didn't know what offset was at the time) and I don't like the way it looks. Sharp looking wheels for the price if you can get the right spec. I also don't use hub adapters but it couldn't hurt to take some of the stress off the studs, and some of them are fairly cheap. I did break one stud on my previous 8 with some American Racings wheels that didn't have the same hub bore soo... like I said couldn't hurt.
