The offset is way lower than that. I think those come in a +15 as well? Maybe?

Indeed they do, that's gotta be a tough fit.

This was my handle on the internet right after I saw that movie. It probably seems silly now (or people just have no idea why I'm using another guy named Tyler's email acct) but it's easy to remember now after so many years.

Anything related to Fight Club will never get old/overplayed.

Pretty sure the fronts are 18x9.5 +15 and rears are 18x10.5 and some similarly low offset.

My JDM centercaps finally got here from Japan. It was so impossible to find these. I'm incredible happy my guy was able to restore them because I've never seen Work caps like these on any wheel.
But yeah, wheels are officially complete (waffle, centercaps, and all), I'm picking them up tomorrow!

Comparitively speaking, those numbers aren't as dramatic as you would imagine. I'm running 18x10 +25 on 265's w/no more than a tab delete, some rolled fenders and some C&C (Camber Creativity). I've seen 18x10.5 +22's fit w/265's w/the same amount of work. The rx8 has some surprisingly accommodating wheel wells.
