RX 8 Rims

Hi there does anyone know if i can stick 20" rims straight on my RX8 or would i need to roll the arches?

20s are weak. 24s all the way.


Serious answer: You haven't provided enough information to receive an a meaningful answer. If you keep the wheel width, offset, tire width, and overall tire diameter within the same range as the stock wheel & tire specifications, you can increase the wheel size without impacting fender & suspension clearances.


What are the width, offset, and tire size of the 20s you are considering?

It has been done, but why? 20s would seriously decrease the performance of the car.

ressurecting an old thread for a new question : what are the specs on RX8 wheels? i know the bolt pattern is 5x114.3, but what is the offset and width?

edit: ok i found what i was originally looking for (18" x 8", +50 offset). now i'm curious, does anyone know how much these weigh?
