Ordered the Flyin` Miata Stage 2 big brake kit (Street); according to Tomoyo San the CMC-01 is designed to use with NB2 brakes. It looks like they will be a touch big

Love the look of these wheels, and they're light. They'd look so right on a retro styled Roadster. Are they stamped or cast?

The wheels are forged.

Your spot on with the vintage look, I have the Runabout mirrors, Zoom gas cap, Trap front spoiler (recent addition) and Jet stream boot spoiler on it as well as a shed load on Nakamae and Zoom interior pieces plus a Garage Vary tail light conversion to go into it. I'm looking to make it into a light(er) weight vintage style track car with plates.

I've just had these wheels fitted.
They are ROTA RB's in 15x8 +25
Tyres are slightly stretched on KU31's 195/50R15

I've got an AGI 4 point cage with door bars powder coated the same colour which should make it look less of a stark contrast.

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

Had my wheels since mid last year. Had to wait 5 months for them as I had them on pre order. They're a 16x8 ET +20 with 205/40r16
