Default RAR programs for mac?

O.k. I keep downloading different programs to be able to open up rar files, but all the programs are exe. files and I don't know how to intstall/open them. I have a mac. On my old pc this was easy... all I had to do was click on the icon. What am I doing wrong, or where can I get a program that will work for mac? I'd like to open up some RAR files that I got. Any help would be appreciated.

You've got me. I use 7-zip on PC and it does great. I'm not sure if they have a Mac version.

Mac's come with StuffIt Expander? You'll probably find it in the Utilities folder.

Mac's don't do .exe files.
