They will fit fine, but I'm not sure they will bolt up to the RX8. I'm not sure on that bolt pattern. Those seem to be replicas and the 100/112 under bolt pattern means it could be 5x100 or 5x112 (I think), neither of which fit our car. You need 5x114.3. They do make adapters for that but I think they are pretty expensive.
I will ask the seller

I hope i am posting on the right place.
Could anyone take a look on these
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/19-New-RS4-Aud...QQcmdZViewItem
that comes with kumho ku31 235/35/19 i know is not the best choice for tyres but what the heck. To install a set of four pirellis or yokohama or bridgestone i will need about 1000euro here in Cyprus. For 800euro i could get these 19" wheels with tyres :P
and let me know if they will fit my 8? Everything is stock on my 8.
I don't get the things with offset and all technical.
The only thing I want more from the OEM 18" is to refresh my looks (big wheels). I love the handling and feeling i have now. What it would be with these wheels?
Thanks!

im on the topic of tires, i want the Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec's but the problem with those is they dont make them in the tirerack recommended tire for the stock 05' base automatic 8, the base 05' auto rides on 16's and they recommended a tire size of 225/55-16, which btw is the same size tire on my car right now... Granted id like to get those Z1 star specs BUT the closest size they make is a 225/50-16, do you think it would be ok to go with that? if not ill just get the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport's in 225/55-16

Hey i need a little help here, i started to read through this thread and decided it would take me a year to find the proper set up, and i couldnt find anything even close. I want to get some 18" adr rims. I just need to know how big of tires i can run without f-n with my fenders. Hopefully someone can help!
18x8.5 +32 front
18x9.5 +35 rear
18x8.5 +32 front
18x9.5 +35 rear

ADR sucks, get something else.
You'll fit fine, you'll be able to clear a 255 in the front, a 275 in the rear (will need roll)

i have 18x8.5 +35 offset with 245/40 and i have no problems - but then again you are running a more aggressive offset. From what i've seen on my own wheels is that i could run a more aggressive in the front (say +30) and still be fine. Not sure how far +25 will push it though. I doubt you'll run into any issues...if anything, maybe a roll.
