are my tires/wheels normal?

p225/45r18.....i believe this means i have 18x9 rims, right? i'm having a hard time finding rims to replace my current ones (at least for a semi-decent price). does anyone know some good places to find new or even used 18x9 rims that will fit on my 05 rx8?

sorry if this thread has been made before

tire width means nothing in terms of rim size. But, I'd say that you have the stock size tire, which fit on 18x8 rims.
Read the stickies in the tire section to learn about tire/ wheel size.

To find tires, check out tirerack dot com

on my stock wheels I ran a 245/40/18 but yes on my new wheels they are staggered running 245/40/18 front and 275/35/18 rears rears are 18x10inch and front are 18x9 it all depends on how you want yours to be set up and how you want it to perform Remember the bigger and wider you go usually will be heavier so you will notice a difference in performance unless you have the mods to back it up
