Feedback Please: Mazda5 owners with 18" RX-8 Wheels

[mazdadude]

I just scored a set of RX8 OEM 18" alloys. I was wondering what the feedback is from others here that have made the swap, as far as ride, performance, rubbing, and what tire size you used.(kissass)

You need to put 225/40 and the look is almost perfect but you need a drop with a set-up like that, otherwise you will look like a tractor. Here's how mine look last summer with my Rx-8 rims on it... Drop on Eibach Pro-kit.

Here's what mine looked like last year....Tires were 215/35 and rocking Megan Racing Lowering springs(1.8" drop)

No rubbing

are you guys using Mazda3 spring kits?

 

[mazdadude]

Oh crap! I do not want to lower it. (headshake

The tires that are on them now are 225/45/18
