Gold:

Gunmetal:

If you guys think of a different wheel that would work better i'm all ears. the lighter the better and no bigger the 16inch.

There's also sportmax wheels. 15x8 and you can get them in any color as well

 

Black:

Change the red to blue on those first black ones and youre set IMO :thumbup:

[AWW$HEEET]

Do not pass go, do not collect 200, do not buy rotas.

 

Look for a used set of kosei K1's.

That's already in the works as well kiddies. so let's just talk about wheels here

I love the sportmax. If you have to get rot as, get gunmetal or black. Edited June 1, 2011 by zeitgeist57

Question why buy a black/red lip wheel if you want to take the red lip off? Seems like there are tons of wheels on the market that you could find an all black six-spoke wheel... Black w/ blue would look sweet.

Bc I'm in love with that rota grid offroad wheel. The blue lip on them would lOok amazing. I'd have to hand paint that on or something

Wheel options are getting good for these cars. No reason to get Rotas or Drags or whatever.

 

949 racing is the (IMO) gold standard for cheap, strong, and light wheels: http://949racing.com/

 

Team Dynamics also makes a good wheel, but it's somewhat blah.

 

Actually, just go here:

Alternately, tire rack makes a kickass wheel:

Available in various colors.

I say gold or bronze....but I owned a wrx, so I am biased.

Lots of good choices. Kris' miata (Vegas Sirk) was looking fantastic. I do believe he was using spacers as well though

[Wonderboy]

bronze or black is the way to go. those rotas that you like look sick in bronze.

Gee bus fucking cry iced those Braid wheels are expensive...

For a nice 2-3 piece wheel, that's about average.

 

Btw, I think 16's are nearing donk status on the NA miata. I would stick with aggressive 14s or 15s.

Black panasports would look pretty sick. We've got a set of 10 inch panasports on a car in the basement, first person to guess what it is gets nothing.
