Pics pics!!! (please? :D ) I've always wanted to see what these look like on MX5es... 4 spoke wheels just fascinate me so

Ok I'm thinking of getting these rims

It comes in White, Gun Metal, Black
I'm taking black out of the question because it looks cheap spray can job

Hey does anyone know if those rims being +42 offset will hang out of the guard? I think stock rims are +40 but just making sure so its all legal the rim is 0.5\" wider

+42's might hang out the guard if they were about 9.5 inches wide, but they'd have fouled on the strut long before that :lol:

since I haven't been having a good run

especially when your driving along in a 121 and get pulled over and get suspected for drugs and get drug searched ....
