Tire size- fit or not
Im currently looking for snow tires and came across some but the size is slightly off. The tires that I have now are 225/40 rz18. the tires I found for sale are 225/45 r18. Will these tires still fit?

oem size for rx-8 is 225/45-18 or 225/40-19 why you have 225/40-18 is beyond me

I just bought this car and these are the exact tires on it, Continental extreme contact dw 245/40 rz18. Anyhow, thanks for the info.
Like speedracer said, stock size is 225/45R18. Another common option is 245/40R18 as they are very similar in daimeter, yet 20 mm wider. I would suggest narrower tires for winter use though, as they perform better through snow and ice. Do you plan on mounting them on stock wheels? |
So 245/40R18 would go on stock 8J 18" wheels then? Blimey, I look at my alloys and the tyre is already out from the alloy?

18x8 wheels are within the suggested range for 245/40R18, but it is on the edge.

Looks like you made a typo. Care to specify which size you have?

Will 225/45 fit a 18x9 wheel?
