Wheel/Tire Setup!!

Hey everyone,

Newb question--- I'm looking into a set of wheels off of an RX8 to throw on my GS 400..

They are 18's with an offset of +50, 67.1mm hub diameter, and the tires are 225/45.

Does this setup sound okay?

Thanks!

The stock 17" GS wheel is 17x8 +50 and the Mazda RX8 wheel is 18x8 +50 so it should be fine. You can run the 225/45 it should be fine but once they wear out I would switch to a 235/40R18 or 245/40R18. You will also need a 67.1-60.1 hubcentric ring
