Phwoarrr....that might be pushing it a little. Even at 7in+20 you would need to roll the guards to get it all to fit, and these would stick out a further 15mm.

Here's an NA with 14x7in+3,

Looks great but the wheels are actually sticking out past the edges of the body so I'd be surprised if they didn't rub.


I just found a pic of the Rota RB 13x8 +4 offset... looks pretty tuff!

Heres my new rims (thanks to Mr Starlet) they are apparently +9 offset and from what i can see looks to be fairly accurate.
Front tucks in nicely on the stock gaurds with -2.5 camber rear sticks out a little but thats only got -1.75 camber.

I love these wheels!!

That last picture from the back looks so much like my car at the moment its not funny... My paint is flat from being sanded, no badges, wide low offset wheels with no stone guards behind the wheels and an aerial stuck half way up

Ariel is actually all the way up, had to modify a stock (supercheap) one to fit into the mx5 bottom bit - had to drill a hole through it.
Heheheheh

Yea love the low offset look, make the car look mighty tough and wide
