Wheel fitments on NA

Postby Manusdei » Thu May 13, 2010 6:43 pm

Hi guys, just found a set of rims that ive always liked up for sale. They're 14x6.5" +37 offset, Watanabe's, with 185/60 RE001's fitted, And just trying to find out if these would be a good fit on an NA6 MX5. I currently dont have an NA here, so trying to see if any one has had this size rim before.

Cheers.

The rim width and offset are slightly different to stock, but nothing too extreme. I'm sure there are people running even greater changes in width and/or offset without any issues. Somebody with first hand experience will probably be able to give a 100% certain answer.
