^what he said.......You make sure the offsets will fit your car properly?
erik ran 8" 0 offsets all the way aroundon a lowered car with minimal fender rolling. Mine is stock ride height now so it should fit fine. Found a slammin deal on some limited production knock offs made for an 86. http://xxrwheels.com/sportmax_513.shtml#. Those in semi-gloss black with a red lip.

Use this as a reference: http://www.dakota-truck.net/TIRECALC/tirecalc.html
Keep in mind, that a 245 in say a...Falken isn't always the same as a 245 in say Toyo. Yes it should all be a width of 245, but that is far from the case we have found.

I based my sizes purely on rolling diameter. I would imagine you're not going to be able to get much more than a 225 on the back of the miata without some work...

Are you still putting the flares on the car joel? If so, you can run a 245 in the<u> rear</u> providing you have the ride height set properly. If the ride height is stock, youll have no worries.
I don't plan on putting the flares on this year. Turboing it, plus new wheels will set me back plenty of money the way it is... I also plan on doing a crazy stereo this year.BlackEJ8;248582 wrote:

A pink crx still wouldn't be half as gay as a miata. And have you ever seen a car on low offset wheels that isn't lowered? I can't imagine how retarded this will look. In for pics.http://www.fargostreet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16143
Ya, you sure know a lot about styling cars.
Joel, throw some red lugs on there! makes sure they stick out a shit ton too. Oh one more thing, make sure your using stock wheels.

Lol I know that zero offset wheels on a Miata at stock ride height will look retarded.- A Miata is a sports car. it doesnt sit high from the factory.
- Try lowering a Miata and fitting any kind of wide wheel with a low offset.
- My car already wears tires bad enough, I dont need retarded amounts of camber to eat my nice tires.
