I'm interested in using these wheels for autocross / time trials, but have no interest in modifying the fenders and definitely don't want any rubbing either. Is this possible at certain alignment settings? It sounds like they are rubbing on the inside, and not hitting the edge of the fender at all. Is this correct? Would leaving the alignment stock solve all issues? Thx for any help

 

I'm looking for these wheels in black if anyone has them for sale pm me or email me @.ers5009@gmail.com I don't care if they have.tires.or not

 

^^^
They're cheap enough through TireRack. Why not get them there?

 

Black are on back order, silver and grey are available though.

Yea Im really looking for Black... anyone

I cant justify buying gray and painting them black before they go on my car

 

i just ordered a set of blacks. they said they will be here in less than a month

 

this reply is sorta premature.. but it might give you an idea


haven't given it 10/10's yet.. so i'm not sure if weight transfer will create clearance issues

but on the street.. ZERO issues

anyone else running anything other than the standard TireRack offest they offer through the website?

 

Are you asking if someone is running the Miata wheels vs the S2000 wheels? The S2000 wheels are +62 vs the Miata as +48. Not sure if they would fit on the car without fender modification.

 

Yeah, that's what I wanted to know. I've got a set and just bought a 2nd. Just wanted to know if anyone else is running the +48. And yes, I did have to do some slight fender work - no more than people running 17x9 +45 RPF1s
