nickel 6UL's, or 15x7.5 bronze rota slipstreams?
Who is Emilio? And 9 or 10" wheel in the back of a Miata? ****. I wanna know.
I've seen some sick pics of the RPF1's on the NC's, these kinda look like those. Is one a knock-off of another?

Emilio has alluded to making a 15x9 that could fit FRONT AND BACK, or a 15x10 that would fit the back only.

I changed my mind. I'm going to get another set of stockers, and buy sway bars, engine and diff mounts, "sport" brakes for the front, and dyno time.
I don't think I'm ready for r-compound rubber yet, so I'm going to also buy a TV instead.

Dude if you are serious about racing, buy the right equipment and get R's. Running street tires on the track is false economy. An RA-1 will last and last and be able to take the heat and abuse.

I'm more worried about it masking bad habits and poor technique. I think I'm going to run one more set of azenis before I switch to ra-1's. Do you think 250whp on a 205 r-compound is going to be challenging? Will the 225 give me that much more grip in terms of tire spinnage?
I run 215/13 V710 and I seriously need more tire. This is autocross where there are serious demands put on traction.
RA-1 isn't going to mask bad habits. By that logic you should ditch the Azenis and run a Kumho Supra 711. Besides once you put that turbo in the car you are going to have to relearn how to drive, and it'll be harder.
