Will these work/fit?
Hi,

Total newb question here so I apologize in advance

I'm just looking at getting brand new rims and tires and was looking at this set...

Ebay Link

Will it fit properly? I realize it's for a mustang, but the bolt pattern is the same.

The offset is 25mm on the front and 29mm on the rear. I'm rebuilding the RX8 with my dad (who's the mechanic) after a writeoff, not mine.

Cheers

if you stretch the tires and run some serious neg camber it could work, but even then its not really streetable
