Talking New tires and Wheels

Had these laying around after I had to sell my RX8. They're 18" Wedsport T005's with 245x40x18 Bridgestone REO50 PolePositions. The wheels weigh in at 17lbs each. Nothing rubs. Stock suspension for now. What do you guys think? It ain't no RX8 but you have to make do with what you got-right.

I don't mean to necro or troll, but how much space do you have around those wheels and tires? Also, what is the off-set of those wheels?

they look good, they look pretty similar to the Acura TLS model wheels. I really like, do you know how much the wheels would go for?

Plenty of room in front. No rubbing at full lock to lock. No rubbing when hitting bumps. Rears have about a 1/2" between inside of tires to inside of car. Only rubs a bit wheen hitting good size bump at speed. Just finished 2 days at Thunderbolt raceway and there was no rubbing anywhere and I really gave them a workout. No rub with 3 small kids in back. Wheels were about $250 apiece when I got them 4 years ago for my RX8. I'm not sure what the offset is but the standard offset for the RX8 is +50.
