The funny thing is, Konig is owned by YHI which is a Singaporean company but they are not widely available there...mainly because there's very little demand for "small wheels" in SEA. Just Google "Konig America YHI" and it should show up.

IIRC there was also some information previously available that showed / suggested that YHI manufactured for Enkei.

Enkei os a bit expensive, but compare with advan wheels still a lot cheaper.

This is the one that I purchased with the wheels, they have black colour and it is a bit more expensive. Don't know why, but since I have silver wheels then I just get some silver lugs to match with it.

Thanks to you Tesco, I also have just purchased Flatouts! I didn't see them on stock on the website and was almost about to buy the wideopens.
I even have the same wheel nuts haha.

Like you, I love+have the blue+chrome combo look but there was something missing in your car which I couldn't put my finger on until now:

You NEED the 3 small chrome rings around the instrument cluster dials to match your large ones - see http://www.mx5parts.co.uk/chrome-instrument-rings-mazda-mk25-p-554.html

Sorry to point that out since I know now you'll have to get them to "complete the look" :twisted:

Also, I had the chrome stick-on centre console fascia too at one point but ended up going back to my stock SE one since every time I had to pull it out (I'm a habitual tinkerer), the chrome fascia would unstick in several places and I'd have to pull it off, sand off the old glue on both surfaces and re-stick it back on. This gets old quick but may not bother you if you don't plan to do much work behind there and don't need to pull it off much.

Haha, I know that bit already, I want to get rid of that as well, but the one I am going to buy is a bit expensive. So I need to save some money and wait for it in next year.
Which is this one here http://www.kgworks.co.jp/eng/ei44.htm

LOL, that's the one I have - we obviously have similar interior tastes.

Sharka is one of the best known NAs in the world - when I get an NA, I wanna do the same "70s porn interior", I love it.
