Question Will RX8 stock rims fit Mazda6?

My sister-in-law has a Mazda 6 and my brother really likes the rims on my 8. He was wondering if they would fit their 6. Would anyone happen to know the answer to that?

Thanks!

Yes...but you have to roll the rear fender wells to avoid rubbing. If you just put them on, you'll damage your rear fender lip over time and possibly get external cracking on the outside fender.



Once the fenders are rolled though...you can fit 235/45/18 and 235/40/18 without issues. Supposedly 245/40/18 will also fit, but no one has yet to test it.
