-hope the link works...

are the offset to low for the rx8, will their be fender rolling involved...im really considering buying these wheels, let me know what you think....id hate to get them and they not fit on the rx8

 

+23 will look like hell, the lowest i've seen here was +33

 

whoa, +23 is NOT a good idea.

take a look at the "will it fit" thread.

 

those sizes will fit. you're good to go.

run 225/40R18 up front and 255/35R18 in the rear. you may need to fender roll, but that all depends on how low you will drop the car later on. lowering will bring the camber in so you maybe able to avoid fender modification. those are great looking wheels btw.

 

Dan knows his ****. I'm starting to dig the slightly stretched look as well and would like to go to with a lower offset one day as well.

 

^^ what?! No more wheels for YOU. You can't buy another set of wheels before I do. Besides, we both know what mod(s) you need to do first.

 

oh, you know that mod is a priority right now. so bored w/o other mods and such a headache to think about. haha but i need to get it done sooner or later. wheels, i will be coming back to some day.

 

those will fit pretty easily. You can probably fit up to a 18x10.5 +15 all around with 255's... or even more aggressive if you aren't a *****. And when I say "fit", I really mean tuck tire.

 

btw those wheels are for sale on this forum too.

 

I wish you luck

 

would that something be turbo?!

 

haha if i could only make up my mind it may go along faster.

 

I knew you were gonna Rice out your car.

 

never. it's not rice, it's just more aggressive.

don't make me talk about them chrome wheels.

 

Stretch FTW! a slight stretch and poke actually looks pretty nice, over the edge stretch is pretty homo.

PS: Razz dont talk about rice, with chrome wheels on an 8 J/K.

 

mu ha ha stretch to be a looser!

 

a slight stretch means your tire width being approximately your rim width.

exceeding that, you will be in stretched out territory. Rice-A-Roni. Though you can just get chrome rims and i'll still think of you the same way.

 

there's no may about it, the rear fender lip will have to be rolled

 

apparently you had a brain tuck somewhere along the way ...

 

my rears right now are 19x9.5 +34 but with a 3 mm spacer that brings it to +31 along with 275/30 in the rear. Fender trimming or rolling is definetly needed if you plan on lowering your ride, also if you plan on having passengers ride in the car with you.

 

Not saying you can fit it, just that it's possible.

 

preciat the responses...im really a silvia guy...gota 240 but lookin to get an rx8 for my daily driver...jus plannin to make it look good wit some wheels n maybe lowering it....

 

i would keep my mouth shut if i were you...

 

im running a 18x8 17et in the front and 18x9 21 et in the rear...

 

agree!!!!
