What's your pinch height front and rear? What's your suspension set up, what's your budget, and what exactly are you trying to do? "More stance" means absolutely nothing.

I won't be able to help you, but no one will be able to help with what you have currently provided...

If you put your wheels on the other way around, the dish will be huge.

So you know, on this forum, every recommendation will be something that actually makes the car faster. You are not likely to find any suggestions otherwise. If you actually
spend an hour or two searching and taking notes (what you are supposed to do), you will find answers to your questions. But nothing on "stance". Using that word on this forum will get you nuked.
You have been warned.

More info on your goals, skills, budget, will help. Don't be lazy answering:

Goals
what will you be doing with the car?
daily driver, autocross, trackday, drifting (real drifting not hooning at the mall on sunday)

Budget
I have $150 to spend over the life of the car
I have $15,000 to spend over the life of the car

Skills
I changed my oil once, took a few tries to get it right
Swap brake pads no problem
I program 5 axis CNC machines for a living, aerospace certified titanium welder, master tool and die maker and dabble in composite in my spare time. Work for Haas F1 team

In your court bruh

He's got a picture showing a complete stock set up and you have no idea? Lol Dude obviously just needs some cheap coilovers to get low but not bump around. Most on here will tell you to buy Xida, but you clearly don't need to spend $2k on prime suspension if you use the word stance. So get some affordable Tein coilovers, BC, Megan or any low end but not ebay quality suspension and have fun.

Try not to make the Sunshine State look any worse with your next reply, please. We've already got a bad reputation around here.

Deep-dish wheels, if they don't also add width to the inside, will make your car corner worse and ride worse and will make the steering wheel get snatched out of your hands when you go over bumps. Why not go wider and add width evenly to the inside as well as the outside to maintain the handling?

All of the wheels on Goodwin racing website will be properly matched to fit in Miata.

Dont waste your keyboard breath, OP is already banned.

Deciphering the 3rd grade level formulated question, he wanted deep dish wheels and lowering suspension recommendations for a stance look.

That was unnecessary. He just needed some guidance. He certainly wasn't rude. I hope someone reconsiders.

He necro'd a 6-year-old thread just to ask why we were being so hostile to someone who created a thread far worse than this one. He should have been banned much sooner.
