Artificial Life:
Lookin' good! The Volk TE37s will be what colour? What's the offset? Will you need to roll your rear guards with 235 width?
cheers

Heya guys great wheels! Its going to be a hard choice for my new set but here are the current 14x6 BBS rims:

offset... dunno

As far as I can work out, they're originally off a DC2 Integra (don't quote me on that)

The 235's are *just* rubbing under hard cornering, so I'm going to get 225's - I don't want to start rolling guards. I've put the stock ones back on for now

I'm thinking titanium silver, and I've got a set of red RAYS stickers to replace the white ones they have now

You put $100 Chinese tyres on your $50K sports car... :shock:

Gotta love Nankang...

No point running RT615's or similar for the daily commute, I think you'll agree, and I didn't have to pay for them anyway.

Unfortunately I only have room for 1 car

I'm running them too, don't worry. I love them for the price, just be VERY careful in the wet! :shock:

bluddy nice hey lukey???.........i'm not sure, but when i had a closeup look, they actually have the Mazda emblem in the centre of the wheel......they don't LOOK like an OEM type wheel, but being germany, ya never know

great site AJ, but not dial up friendly!
How did you come across it??? The rims look great, but 19\" does not leave much rubber between rim and road...

hehe......i'm a broadband whore pete :lol:

ummmmmm............googled MX5 logos i think

& yeah, i think that wheel/tyre combo is more suited to those smooth european autobahns......but DAMN, they look hot!!! :mrgreen:

yep yep

... i concur .. those are awesome!!
Those really are beeeudiful..
Although its all down to individual taste, IMO a nice set of rims can
make a car as long as they put a twinkle in the owners eyes
otherwise its really a bit like wearing your 5 year old worn out gardening sandshoes with an armani suit.

Is there a higher res link to those images?? as the site doesnt seem to be working for me..

its a pity they're a 5 stud other wise i'd try to organise a group buy for my NA... :lol:
