You'll need spacers for sure. Stock FC offset is +40, these are wider and have a higher offset so they'll probably rub your springs.

EDIT: Are you sure those are the right specs? That label says that the wheels have a chrome finish and are dual lug pattern, while the rim in the first pic doesn't appear to be either of those.

ok done some research and found out the box is nothing to do with the rims, they are the boxes for his new rims. ok the rim is off the new Rx8, it comes on the standard and luxury models while the rx8 gt has the r3 rim, so the rim is a 18". My new question is what is the offset of the rx8 and will the rims fit on the rx7
