rim fitment question!

Hi i was wondering if any rim experts could chime in.
I want to use my stock mazda rims as winters for an rdx.
i was wondering if the rims would fit and clear calipers?
the stock rim size for the mazda is 17x6.5 +52.5
and the stock rim size for the rdx is 18x7.5 +43
i believe both have a 5x114 bolt pattern

edit: bore sizes are 64.1 for rdx and 67.1 for the 3

I have a similar question about rims. I bought a set of MSR 013 17x7.5 rims for my wife's RDX with 225/60R17 Blizzaks (5x4.5" bolt pattern). They have a 38mm offset and 5.633" backspacing. From looking at the stock size, I don't think it will be an issue, but I would like to make sure before I commit further; the salemen said it wouldn't because of the calipers but that is non-sense. Also, I bought 4 Acura wheel sensors - what is the process to have them programmed? On my Jeep, it is only a matter of driving it around above 30mph (50km/h) until it learns where each tire is - about 5 minutes usually.

Sorry for the highjack but it was a similar question and seemed relevant.

Sensors will program themselves. There is a receiver in each wheel well that will pick up on each sensor and you should be good to go.
