Stock height aftermarket wheels
 
so i know that the stock size wheel is 18x8 with a +50offset. Im on stock suspension , what's the lowest offset without fender rolling and widest wheels can i go for all 4 corners. im thinking 18x9 +35 all four. any suggestions?

Direct this to the will it fit thread. You should find a good answer there.

why are u guys posting on here if ur not going to give any suggestions/help. if u want to troll go on youtube.

9krpmrx8 11-09-2012 12:34 AM

It's not trolling, the widest wheels with the lowest offset will give you the look in the pictures above. Do some freakin' research man, there are a million different setups posted on this site. But at the then end of the day only you can decide what YOU think looks good.

Stock suspension and wider wheels with a lower offset looks fugly IMO.

Your the one trolling us with your lack of searching for the answers which have been asked and answered a thousand times

Johnvx1k 11-09-2012 09:55 AM

I think you should be fine. An 18x9 +35 will extend out 28mm more than the stock 18x8 +50. Now several users (including me) have run 25mm spacers on the stock wheels. Look at the picture in the link I provided and just add 3mm and that should be what it will look like. Of course tire size will affect that as well. It might look a little goofy, but you will not be mexiflush like 9k was saying. You might have some poke. Like I said try searching through the will it fit thread

youtube trolling = new fags

forum trolling = cheap version of penis enhancement



p.s. - learn from what this forum has already provided instead of cluttering it. Delete thread. kthxbai :wavey:

This is why many people dont like this forum.... there is more than 8000+ replies on the "will it fit tread" i dont have the time to read every single post. more than 40% isnt even important info.

Everest^ 11-10-2012 01:15 AM

when i mean lowest offset and widest wheels, i mean when you turn, the front wheels dont rub. im not talking about putting 22s on a rx8.

I have PF01's in 18x9 + 35 with 245/40R18 tires. I'm lowered on Mazdaspeed coilovers and I don't rub at all. I have the coilovers as low as they go which is 2" I think.
I had the wheels on the car for 2 weeks before lowering and there were no issues but they made the car look like a truck with the stock suspension. If I were keeping the stock suspension I would go with a slightly less aggressive offset, maybe + 40.

check the 'how to pick wheels for the rx8' thread started by Jbunchofnumbers. in that thread he brakes down what sizes fit.

If you don't have the time to search and read a little, what makes you think that everyone here has time to spoon feed you? Is our time not as important as yours?

The Will it Fit thread is out of control, I agree.....but it is posters like you that are causing it to become out of control. Be part of the solution, not the problem. Next time you feel like posting, take 5 minutes and search for your question.

Here is that thread mrl84 mentioned:

If you don't like reading then learning must not be a priority. Hence...trolling.

I took two months to just read stuff before making my first post. It's one thing to ask for clarification on points of confusion after doing the basic research, quite another to ask others to do the work for you. My basic fee for consultation is $100/hr or $500/day when I charge for such things. Ppal the cash and I'll do your work for you. Laziness is expensive.

There's a life lesson here should you choose to see it.

Everest^ 11-12-2012 01:35 PM

no one is forcing you to give me any of ur "important" info. If you want too, it will be great.
