check the 'aggressive fitment' thread. Pic's are in there too

people are pulling off 18x10 +25's and +18 in some cases.

In short. It's not a question of if it will fit - it's more of a question of 'making it fit'. 18x9.5 +25 is doable.

Check the "Will it fit" thread from here:
https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/will-fit-thread-133500/

Check out this one, front 19x8.5 +17 and rear 19x10 +22, I believe you will need to roll and pull the guard slightly and a bit of -ve camber.

It's more a question of your intended tire's sidewall height (profile) and if you plan to lower the suspension or not.

thanks for the info... now i'm sure the rims i'm getting will fit, cuz 19x10 fitted on the rear... the thing is, 18x9.5 +25 on the front might rub whenever i steer, what do you think? and my car is dropped but it's adjustable.. and i want the stance to look a little simililar to the bn sport rx8, only with a rota rims... just cause i'm broke and i'm sick of being hella tuck... lmao

check out my album pics to see 18x9.5 +30 with 275/35 tires all around.

like tilla said, anything can fit, but if you mean 'will it fit.............without much modification' then i'd say no. i had to roll in the back and i still need a pull. the fronts barely touch an full lock.
