Axis wheels, do 15 x 8 fit an NA?

Postby Kallaroo MX5 » Mon Sep 09, 2013 7:19 pm

Hello,

Looking at the Axis wheels from MX5 Mania, do the 15 x 8 fit on an NA? What is the widest tyre I can run without hitting the guards, I am running a low ride height with they yellow speed coil overs.

Cheers

How low? Hub to guard measurements please.

Are you guards rolled/do you want to?

It is not supper low, I have 14" BSB wheels with 195's and heaps of room, don't really want to roll the guards, just like the axis wheels and am happy to fit 195's just would like the look of the 205.

offset is +25?
slight roll required for 205, no point scrubbing.

Yes they will fit. Axis wheels are 15x8 +25, people have run lower offset wheels just fine. You should be able to get away with just rolling the guards, but if you want to fit wider tyres than you will have to factor in pulling out the guards or/and running a bit of camber.
