looks better with OEM wheels :goodjob:

[metalman]

...and now youre 20lbs lighter on each wheel too...thats 80 lbs less rotating mass...thats a good thing! :)

[osiriskidd]

[The BUCKY]

except they came in at 46.5 lbs a piece. a little too heavy for a miata

[umairejaz]

^that is true, I remember back in my GSR going from 18's to stock 15s made a WORLD of difference!!

lol i was seriously looking at yours and considering them really hard then i saw these for 150. other than that i prob wouldve bought yours in a couple weeks if they were still available


EDIT: and im about to fix the side skirt i just need to go get the stuff to do it. finally got time since im out of school till mid may

[Doppelgänger]

lol yea just another 250, and you also have the power there for the 17's

[Doppelgänger]

Power? I know nothing of what you're talking about :ninja:

[cactusEG]

Looks better man...

[DC2NR]

Looks alot better now

[OnURleft]

Looks better... now to the sideskirts. I can't believe the wheels were 47.5lbs a piece...maybe with tires??
Every pound over stock equates to somewhere around 7lbs in your car per corner from the rotational mass. Therefor if you were say 22lbs over stock x 4 you had an extra 616lbs in your car...meaning your Miata was about as heavy as an E30 or the likes..A little hard to believe but when you throw deuce deuce's on a Chevy, essentailly thats how much weight you are adding to look pymp tastik

[Dirty Octopus™]

looks whey better :goodjob:

[Thighs]

you should get rid of the side skirts all together...

but those are WAYYY better than the dubbin old wheels

[Mr. Clean]

hmmm... it looks better but it needs something else... maybe some 16's?? idk... the stock wheels look teenie.

looks much better though and im sure its more fun to drive. :goodjob:

oh and take those side skirts off fosho! haha

[redrumracer]

lol but i like the side skirts

[Revmaynard]

They look alot better man, get some of the MSM wheels, those are sexy.

[w3503]
