Will 18x8 wheels fit on the CX-30?

I just purchased a CX-30 Turbo and want to upgrade to Mazda M012 18x8 wheels. Will they fit? The Mazda parts guy said they won't and need 18x7.5 ...

Thanks for the advice.
 
I doubt there will be any issue fitting them. Mazda has a lot more than 0.5" extra clearance on these cars.

Please don't deduce wheel fitment down to nothing more than clearance and aesthetics.

Let's take a look at the chart here:


As you can see. the offset range for your car is 43-47, with a 7" wheel.

an 8" wheel with the same offset means your offset will be more than 10mm off. That's not recommended.

Unless you are planning to gain a cool 50hp, the extra width in wheel and tire is completely unnecessary. If you still want to do it, I would suggest selecting a wheel with a compensatory offset figure that brings thing in line with stock. 7" ET45 ---> 8" would be approx ET32, give or take 2, but you'd need to verify that it would clear your suspension components.
