can someone tell me if these will fit? there snow tires

2 - Pirelli SOTTO ZERO winter sized 215-55-17 and 2 Cooper Weather Master sized 215-50-17. The reason for this was a great deal last winter when i bought the Pirelli's and i had a flckat tire so replaced the 2 rear tires with a larger size and yes, it looked very cool a little slanted rake on the car!

on these rims Number of Bolts:5Material:Alloy Width:6.5JBolt Pattern:5 x 4.50 or 5 x 114.3Structure:One Piece Diameter:17 inches

i believe there stock rims off of a mazda3 or 6... theres 2 different tires a pair of pirelli and a pair of the cooper...just for clearity

can someone tell me if they will fit on my 04 mazda rx8'?:

You will likely have to try them...some 17" wheels fit and others don't...kinda hit and miss

I've never heard of anyone putting 6.5 inch wide rims on an 8.

If they are stock rims, call a Mazda dealer and ask. Better yet, go to the service department (with your wheels in the car) and talk to one of the techs. They may give you a good deal on the install.


But, as Dannobre said above, the only way to be sure about fitment on your car is to test fit. The clearance on the front calipers will probably decide the issue.
