Er.... All your measurements are rim size...
But stock wheel size 215/45/18 will fit on 18x8 rims yes...
Just a word of warning, you might get a little bit of hate from some people if you're after the stretched tire look
so even with the stretch is it really bad dirving. as in will the tire pop easy? or shoudl b fine just watch out for cops lol
Go to http://www.mazdaspeedforums.org/ and learn about stretch etc yourself and then come back and ask some more interesting questions.
Also have you done a search on the forum here?
This is a great thread to review..

Mazda247 is the place to go for the stretched hellaflush look...

If i can figure out the question proprely.
your asking if you can fit stock 215/45 tyres onto a 8 inch wide rim?
If so the answer is yes, shouldn't be a problem. Slight stretch but nothing too dramatic.
You would be better off getting some newer/better tyres though. 235/40 for example
guys go easy on people who want to be different. if its not to your taste, then so be it. but no need to be negative. this is a forum where people come if they own a MPS to ask questions and learn, regardless what they want to do to the car.
to the OP, please re-read what you type. you aren't clear on what you're asking...
I believe it is technically illegal to fit a 215 tyre to an 8" wide rim, while some shops will do it for you, you may have insurance issues in the event of a claim.
