superlite wheels
JSE,
I looked at the superlites but spoke to the tech people at Performance wheels and they don't do any offset that will suit a MX5.
The only 4 x 100 wheels they do are so far off that the tyres would rub on the guards.
Sorry mate!!

I have a brand new set of superlites for my MGB, looked at the stud pattern (wrong, wont fit the 5) but didnt look at the offset. I'll measure the offset when i remember and if its in the ball park i'll let you know

They aren't exactly 'super light'.... except maybe the GTR.
The 15x7 ET25 may fit, that's about what Spec Miatas run, not sure if it would need lipping or guard liner removal though. ET30-35 would suit us better.

+25 will fit with no guard modification
+30-35 is weak sauce.

How about you guys try these....(they're the wheel of choice in the Z Club). Great period wheels for the Z Cars in the 70s. Plus they do wild dish offsets.
They're called Rota RB
They can be bought in Australia through Otomoto and they're not a bad price.
