The parts won't add any value to the car, so it doesn't matter what the car cost. A $2500 Miata is nothing but a big box to store all of your aftermarket goodies in/on. Once you're comfortable with that idea, you can really start to enjoy the car you're building.

And you can enjoy the car you are building with or without the 6UL's
I think the C1m's are a discusting knock off and look like something you would buy from sears, but I do like the look and functionality of my C3M's. . . bad morals or not.
P.S. Sav, I just picked up my 11.75 BBK from fedex. Now I get to see if they fit under the C3M's this weekend

I have a friend in C3M's with no problem to date with 15+ track days.
Now for my own personal opinion, they are ugly as ****. If you can't justify the cost and are on a budget no one is going to make fun of your wheels and the C3M might fit the bill. I ordered a set of 6Ul's in 8's because I don't approve of TR taking that fitment info off Emilio's site with out their own testing, they look good, I want Emilio to have my money so he can make more balla parts, they are light, they are sexual(6UL). I run China GT500 knockoff's on my Boss 302, so I'm not being a hater. Waiting for the C3MR 15x10 so I can lol. I hope Emilio makes those FTR's. I paid $97 a piece for 18x10's so I know Emilio can do the FTR if he has the time.

I ended up ordering the C1M's 15X7 et30 specifically made for the Miata so I'd be safe in what ever suspension modifications I choose. As for them being a knock off, I could care less. They are cheap, nice looking, and are backed by a company with amazing customer service. If you think about the wheels that most Miata owners purchase, they are typically knockoffs of a more expensive wheel. Who wants to spend $2500 on wheels and tires for a car that isnt worth $2500?? LOL Thanks for the advice folks!
