Ok! seems there are some wheel experts here so how about identifying These rims

These are ugly as f*&k, but the offset is perfect.
And yes, they are 2 piece 15 x 7.

Maybe made by ROH or Speedy, 'replica' AMG wheels. I'm sure they have a model name but can't remember it right now.

That style flooded yahoo auctions japan a few years back, under several names! All knock offs of the amg wheel.

I had a pair in 17" for my R33 and loved them, although they weighed alot, they look better than steelies. I ended up loving the design, but I also had bigger gaps to define the spokes with the larger diameter.
So lets go!

So... after months of following this great forum plus years of general patience and saving, I have finally secured myself this wonderful car!

Note: Wheels shown in the pics are Enkei 16s and will be up for sale/swap as i am looking for some 15s. I also have a spare set of NB8B wheels in excellent condition - anyway i do a proper post on the used parts for sale section later. PM if anyone's interested.

NA's Show off your rims!

Hi all
New member to the forum and MX5 (NA) owners group.
At the moment I'm trying to source a set that I'm happy with
At present I have these 16" OzRacing wheels fitted
They will be redone in a dull gold color


Suspension is currently standard, with the exhaust replaced only last week with an improved breathing system, but not too loud, and the exhaust tip was kept an inconspicuous black so as not to attract unwanted attention

What do you think?

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