They're probably the 18" 350Z AE rims. They look somewhat like those.

They are RX8 wheels. I was going to get a set the other day. I don't think that the fact that it is RWD makes a lick of different...it'll just be a little staggered

Maxima rims have a larger center bore than Mazda rims. Hence why theyll fit your Mazda but not the other way around.
