Are there any 15 x 4 inch mx5 rims

Postby nfs13b » Tue Oct 24, 2006 5:22 pm

I tried searching but it kept timing out..... Does anyone know if there are any cheap 15 inch x 4inch wide rims that fit on an mx5. I am looking to put front runners on the car and need a small rim.

thanks

space savers are fine..
they are speed limited due to the tyre not the wheel.

use them and some good tyres and you are fine.

this is a silly question, are mx5 space savers 15 inch? (thinking back to my old one and it looked really small) Does anyone have any they dont want?
