depends on the offset.
if you are concerned about legallity....6.5 is the widest you can go without certification. on the other hand, no one would know unless they really looked.

Noice....would they be going on a certain Malibu Gold MX-5 8)

The Konig website lists them as fitting 1994-2005 MX-5s, with an offset of 40mm

I have the Enkei tarmac on the race car...15x7.5...they would be about as wide as you would want to go.

That wheel above would be more like a zero offset. A 40 offset version would have much less dish to it and the spokes would be flush with the rim.
