I need some help here... I'm sure most of you know more about wheels than I do. I've been looking into getting new wheels for my 8. I recently came across these. (See images) The only information I really have about them is quoted:
"18 ENKEI WHEELS MULTY FIT CAME OFF 2003 MERCEDES E320 "
Anyone know if this "Multy" bolt pattern would work on the RX8? If anyone knows anything about this brand, that would be helpful too... I don't want to buy trash.

E320 is 5/112. Ours are 5/114.3. Youll have to look up the wheel type/name and see what two patterns it has on it. most multi fit have only 2 patterns. A good rule of thumb is if the wheel came from a german car, it most likely fit. They love there 5/100 and 5/112's. I hope it helps a little.

| Or you can do what I did to my 19" staggered wheels... I opened the center to fit the RX8 and the bolts and added centering washer-like adapters. Used Mercedes wheels on my 2004 RX8 for a loooooong time.. |

That does help, thanks man. The only issue is I have no idea what the model of these wheels are... Just the brand. I was hoping someone point me in the right direction.

Sounds awesome, but difficult at the same time. :-/ |

| My buddy Ricardo did it, he's got a mill machine. I think he charged me $60 or $80, can't remember how much it was...but many rim repair places can do the same job. This is if you really want to use those rims like I wanted to use those mercedes rims on my 2004 RX8 back then.. |
