Hey Mark,

I have never yet to test these on the road yet as my car is close to completion but here's how close it sits to the guards when its on a uneven surface.

I'd say they will rub lol.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

14 inch SSRs.

Why? What sort of width and profile for 14x8?

14x8 sucks, cause it won't look right, unless you have an awesomely slammed car.

run 195/60 or 185/60 depending on offset.

note: only applies for mx5, 14x8 works well on hachi/ oldschool jdm
