Help a noob with rims, do these fit?
 
I found a set of rims that I like. They are used, but a very good price. Problem is I have no understanding of the numbers he gave me, to see if it will fit on my rx8.

I hoping some of you can tell me if these will work find on my 8.

Front
18x8.0 (+37) 114.3 5H

Back
18x9.0 (+45) 114.3 5H

I think thats all of it, will these rims fit without any problems?

it says right there, 5H (5 holes) 114.3

...if you have stock height on your suspension, there shouldn't be any problem. now if you lower your car, depending on the width of the tire that you use and how low you wanna go, you might need to roll your fenders.

The rims are not on the net.
But they are Super Advan Gen II

I can see if i can find a pic on the net.

Thanks you all for the quick response.

the rims will work just fine

FYI: rolling your fenders is taking the inner lip of the fender and rolling it back so you can fit a wide wheel/tire set up and not rub when you take a bump

its up to you about what size tire you want to run but i would recomend running a 225/45/18 on the front with a 255/40/18 on the rear

the sizes are so close but you still get a staggered tire set up

114.3/5 is the general bolt pattern for most 5 lug japanese imports. as far as I know that bolt pattern is used for both mazda and nissan

the offset will be conservative but it will look very nice

congrats man!
