im glad ur pushing the limits of what fits. not a safe stance. it is a little extreme, but i like, its different!
if you spy a little deeper, you would probably spy air bags too.Quote:

so what are the big names that are actually competitive running at the track? you not feeling what car?
Most Miatas at the track run 15x7 because most run SM.
I'm not feeling the car in the OP.
Rota Grids look agressive on anything....Only wheel they make that looks better then the original (Volk TE-37). Had a set for a while. I would get another but I'm thinking about some new Wed sports or CCW's.
thats a weird sounding werd!Quote:

Like I said name any of the big guys running less than a 9. The reason SPEC MIATA guys run 15x7 is because its a RULE! Nothing wider than 7in. Now name anyone that is COMPETITIVE running otherwise, not class regulated.Quote:

Fuji Racing runs 15x7.5 on their time attack Miata.
It works, it doesnt work the best or have the fastest numbers. Fuji racing is also racing on rotas. Granted im not a fan of rotas they are good wheels but i personally would have went with a lighter option if I were gonna be at the track. Fuji's car also isnt the fastest track prepped miata. The guys running in unlimited classes like flyin miata, 949racing, slickauto, etc all run 9s bc they are proven faster. I really dont understand your theory the 15x9 by 949 is sub 13lbs which is most 15x7 so how is it that you are going to be slower. About the same weight with a bit more grip. 949 has tested the 9 on the track and at an autox and its faster. 7s are old news miata guys that want real grip are running 8s and 9s now. My was on lighter 7s when after i sold m 8s and started parting the car and the level of grip was greatly reduced. Granted acceleration picked up but my 7s are .2lbs lighter than a 9. But the car was still more stable and a lot faster in the turns with the 8s.
The Fuji Racing car I mentioned is a street tire class car, obviously unlimited is more, and obviously unlimited would mean WIDE tires because BIG HP numbers. In MY EXPERIENCE a Miata naturally aspirated with huge wide tires simple doesn't work as well, at least to my driving style. I'm not stupid when it comes to Miata setups or racing, no shit a 9 inch wide wheel will grip better if you're in a fast car. It's also about the driver.
Looks pretty sick to me.
