If they fit that civic, you reckon they'll fit my NA? I have slightly lowered springs too... and I wont be in the position to try them out thats all

FIT wise they will, 4 x 100 and all that.

What are they? 17x7? Usually FWD and RWD's run different offsets, surely some searching on google should tell you what a EG Civic's offset is?

Mx5s run pretty much a front wheel drive offset...not bad looking wheels.

I have a set of these wheels on the wife's Astra. I put them up against the MX5 when I bought it not long after the Astra got the wheels. Looked awesome. But the only reason why I didn't was that they are a real pain the butt to clean in between the small gap of each of the spokes with the brake dust. But that will depend on what brake pads you run of course. The Astra pads are still the OEM pads and they dust like there is no tomorrow. Like 1 day after I wash the car, the wheels have gone from bright silver to dark grey, second day they are black again. Provided you either like cleaning wheels or have low dust pads, go for it, they look awesome.

What diameter are those wheels :?: Looks like you'll need to be vewy, vewy careful driving over any small potholes in the road with that tyre profile.
