They well fit. The specs are 17x8 with +38 offset. If you're lowered, you'll rub in the rear.

Should fit, but like CnoTataymo said, there may be some rubbing in the rears. Same bolt pattern though.

Those practically look like Rota's, why not get a set of those instead?

These are made by a reputable wheel company and could probably be had for cheaper.

(mswerd) Mazda uses a very specific bore size, so you will probably need to run hubcentric rings or have them machined out to fit...

Cool, but you asked him why. That's what I was responding to.

Luckily for him, I believe the Evo 9 bore is 67.1, which is ours, too.

i have 18x8 38 offset and 235/40 tire on stock suspension and it dont rub so i think if its 17 inch rims you should have any problems even if you are lowered

Good deal! I didn't think many other companies used that bore size. I did notice that the offset seems a bit low (+38). Stock is, what, +52? Make sure that's not an issue either...
