Those look sweet - go with an Eibach Prokit spring and you'll be sitting perfectly.

I thought about putting those rims on my P5, even dug up this pic of them on an MSP in the course of my research:

They look better on Proteges than Miatas! :)

[CTt3P5]

They look good! Amazing how all the OE rims look good on the Proteges.

[bradicus18]

Very nice. Good choice. (thumb)

[KronixKid22]

OMG. I want them. Thank's for showing me my future wheels. haha :D

[bumpin_p5]

Dude I practically had a orgasm when I saw that. That is the sweetest looking rims on a P5 that I have ever seen. I might have to look into those. What year MX-5 are they from?

the new ones, 06/07

o yea, if you've upgraded your brakes, you will probably need spacers, as these aren't that far form touching the caliper

[aMaff]

offset?

[wmbeaver]

+55

[aMaff]

holy crap! No wonder they're close to the caliper! You can tuck those in like crazy!

[wmbeaver]

yea, and coming from a wheel that is +40, i see a huge difference visually

[khaosman]

I like!

[Robot Romeo]

i havent had any time, maybe tonight if i can get out soon enough, it will at least be evening pics

[misbehave]

Waiting for day time pics.


Also, I would love to see your face when you need to wash them.
I used to have 10 spokes wheels once, white painted too. Glad I don't have them any more.

Glad I don't have them any more.When I'm done cleaning mine, my hand looks like a shriveled claw. But my smile returns when I take a step back and look at them--they're worth it. :)
