Would RX-8 OEM 18's fit?

[Silver Ecstasy]

I really wonder, those RX-8 5 spokers look really nice, and might look rather decent on a CX-7. Any thoughts? Would they fit at all?

 

[09factor]

Yes they will.
Same size, bolt pattern, and offset.

Hmm...that might be something i'd have to photoshop that and see what I think.

Kind of funny....my cousin's uncle owns a tranporting company...and I went yesterday. They had a used rx-8 repo'ed....very nice....with all the options body kit navigation and the 18's. Well I said if I can take the rims off and put them on the cx-7 and he said yes. But when I looked in detail 2 of the rims and deep scratches on them..so I said no. ......
But I did get a new air compressor from the RX-8

Well alls I need are some people to submit some side shots of their RX-8's and CX-7's hehe.

I was just thinking about this the other day. Maybe even use bigger sidewall tires to fill up the wheelgap a little(not offroad style)

Well you could use the stock 18" tires. Just RX-8 rims. Not RX-8 rims and tires, that would look weird.

ok, just a rough visual..

i know they're not great, but like i said: a rough visual.

Its not too bad I guess, I woulda thought it looked better.

Its not too bad I guess, I woulda thought it looked better.

with a drop and lower profile tires, i bet you'll have the look you were looking for.(glare)

 

[Silver Ecstasy]

Yeah I think thats what its missing.

That and the "sporty" JDM kit.

RX-8 wheels have the same stud pattern, offset with CX-7 wheels EXCEPT RX-8 have lower load rating due to lighter weight of the car

You can fit them into your CX-7 but driving over a big pot-hole the wheels may break

I did try and Mazda dealer told me not too as they MAY void warranty ...

 

[JOS3]

they will try to void your warranty for anything. dont listen to them because they legally can not void your entire warranty because you put rx-8 rims on a cx-7. thats a crock of s***.

 

[CJS525]

ok-
still no JDM spoiler and lip kit, but i think the rims look AWESOME..

RX-8 rims & tires

 

[silverx7]

yeah you're right it's definitely looks better

wish that the RX8 wheels are 19" then it looks 10 times better
