Then.... Winter wheels...
2017 Miata ND with BBS wheels (optional wheels for the "BBS package")
17" x 7", ET-45... no spacer... Working on finding the best winter tires... probably Nokian or Bridgestone 205/45R17's
The Miata wheels have a 1mm TOO small inner bore (hub center) than the 56.1mm MINI centers... Took them to my buddies CNC machine shop...Chucked them up in the milling machine which finds the center automatically to within 0.0003"... and milled it up to 56.1....Bolts on like a factory wheel....Weight is 14.3 lbs each.

Velox Apex Wheels 17 x 7.5 on R57 2009
In case some one else is looking to replace OEM wheels, posting these from Velox. Ordered from Costco online when they had $150 off coupon. Velox ships narrow bolts and the spacers for the set.
I like this silver but they also have a gunmetal color and black.
7.5 inch wide wheels with 205/45/17 non run flats

Just got my 2017 F54 2 weeks ago. Previous owner put these 19" wheels on it, I think the wheel model is a 526 JCW ? Has Bridgestone Potenza S001 225/35/19 RunFlats.
And my Spare Wheel I just added so I don't have to to keep using RunFlats when the current ones wear out.

I don’t think I posted my setup that I inherited from the previous owner.
XXR 536 wheels. 16x8 ET20 originally Bronze color
Tires - Atlas (no name) 195/45/16
these were painted a different color and then white horribly painted over that. It’s a one piece wheel with the look of a 2 piece. Couple bolts have fallen out. You can get them new for about $450 shipped and I think they are 17lbs. Not a horrible budget wheel but these have seen better days.
lowered on Tein coil overs. No rub. Not very close to the coil over on the inside at all.

My 300hp R60 Turbo Swap with 18x8.5 front & 18x9.5 rear Napre Medusa 3 pieces Wheels
Hi all. I just changed my wheels to 18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear 3 pieces wheels from Napre Medusa. The wheels' face has ben repainted gunmetal, the rivets still original (blue stone sapphire crystal look alike rivet, like there is jewelery on it).
The offset is +35. A lot triming and radius metal cut and repaint inside of the fender (so it wont get rust) on the rear.
Sitting low on coilovers and camber kit, aligned with only -1 camber 0 toe rear and -0.5 camber and 0.3 toe in for the front. No rubbing at all and daily driver.
Check my threads if you want to know about other mods such as carbon engine hood scoop and carbon fenders and turbo swap, my old wheels, audio, etc that i did to my car.
Cheers!!
