Default Tire/Rim size question

Hello,

I am not very knowledgable about tire sizes so I'm hoping to get advice here.

I have a 2003 GS300 with stock rims. They are in bad shape -- rusted and peeling etc. I was given a set of new rims but they are a different size: the sticker on them says
Name: Force5
Size: 18 x 8.0
P.C.D: 5 x 114.3

So, assuming these rims fit the car at all, what size tires should I be looking for?

Thanks in advance,
bob

Thats a very open ended question. We don't know what the original size was or what your goals are. My suggestion would be to check out: https://www.wheel-size.com/

245/40/18 would be the tire size that you would be needing for a 18x8 but what are the offsets on these?
