STI Rims on an 8?

I searched but found nothing and remember a guy who has STI rims on his 8. A buddy is selling a set of these 18x8.5 off of his STI for $500.00 in mint condition. They are $299.00 a piece new. I have never heard of them but fro the price I might ****** them up.

They will fit right? I will be looking at them Monday and hopefully the offset is on the inside of the rim.

the ones on the left

I remember that prototype white MazdaSpeed 8 had white sti rims on it and I thought they looked really good on the car

bolt pattern is good, should clear the brakes, verify the offset and hubcenter diameter

Sti newer than 05 has the right bolt pattern, 5x114. but suburus have a 56 hub. much smaller than the rx8's 67.
