new wheels/tires
 
4 Attachment(s)
Just pulled the trigger on some sp10's and a set of bf g-force rivals. I should see them by next Tuesday and I'll post some pics.

I went with 15x7 wheels with a 42mm offset and 205/50/15's. Once they're on and I see what clearance I'll have, suspension work will shortly follow.

:party:

2nd pic is the rubber but not the wheels. Wheels weigh in at 14.5lbs, not sure on the tires?

Needs more lower.

There is a 4lb increase in total weight per wheel/tire.

daylight.:idea:

I ordered a set of coilovers last night, should be here soon.

what made you choose these over the popular 949's, konigs, or even Rotas?

I hadn't seen these on a silver miata yet, offset, weight, and price, were all contributing factors.

These tires are such an upgrade over the shit set I had on there. Even in 35f weather they steer really nice and take bumps smoothly.

not a big fan of the look, but congrats on new cool shit anyway.

I can...and I will. :dealwithit: I think the last two were from before I lowered it.

Very nice, looking so hot. I like drifting and new tyres is my weakness.

thirdgen 08-31-2013 12:51 AM

I pulled the trigger as well...except I am a much better shot.
I'm ditching my mad tyte brotegi's in 16x7 with toyo proxes 4's in 205/45/16. I'm going konig flatout gold with machined lip in 15x8 with hankook ventus rs3's in 225/45/15.
Suck on that, bitches.
