How do you think it'd work out on the rear only? I'm going to test fit some 275's (around the same size as the 255 drag radials) to see if 255's drag radials will fit under it. Fenders Rolled, and I can raise it up a ton because of coilovers.. Would I have to cut the inner fender?
This is a strip setup only to go with a engine that I am building for my NA.
thanks.

Always wondered why i haven't seen 285/30/18's on a Miata before. They seem like they'd work with cut fenders and flares.
They're only .7" taller than 225/45/16's that i've seen on here... which are already quite tall, i admit, but it seems close for /a lot/ more width.

I got 255/40/17's on it, but they're pretty huge. It actually looks decent, with the way it tucks the tires.
but meh, i've been trying to get some 15''s so I can start tracking it/twisties.. and just hold on to the 17's for when i get bigger brakes.

The 255s look awesome, just because of the sheer amount of rubber there. Back picture from low ftw, wanna see it.
How much suspension travel do you actually have though? Looks like... none.

That's the only other picture I have of a low side/rear, I'll grab one in the morning.
