Looks like i found my wheel choice

Working up something with another member as a trade

He buys me a set of the xxr 002 16x8 +/-0, a few cans of white rattlecan, and pays to have my tires mounted onto them and takes the RKs.

Don't be so negative, I'll make **** work

CleanNeon98 · 11-19-2009, 03:22 PM

I could also do these

15 offset 16s on the same mild roll.
205/45/16 16x8
a compromised set-up and works best imo. clears perfectly even after compromised alignment settings. -2.5* front, -2* rear.

Should work fine with my 205 50 tires I think, even if it rubs the 50s don't have much life left so I will do a 45/40 next time. I like the 002 wheels better but they only come in 0 offset, these come in 15 for easier fitment.

Drop me a line if you're trying to ditch the wheels, Alex. I'll have something by the end of the week to slap them on.

CleanNeon98 · 11-19-2009, 03:39 PM

Probbably do these

16x8 +15 for mild fitment

Taylor the wheels are up for grabs but I kinda like the deal I have set up right now, I can't sell them outright cause I have nothing else to put on...what are u getting? I'm callin u now, curious!

i definatley like the sportmaxs, they look nicer imho. im not a fan of white wheels on your color car. it needs a gunmetal like you have but with a polished lip.

EDIT: if you got the same wheels that are on that red car, color and all i think it would look straight baller though!

OBEEWON · 11-19-2009, 04:32 PM

If you buy those you can keep both. They are super inexpensive.

CleanNeon98 · 11-19-2009, 04:38 PM

I could, just don't feel like laying out a lot of cash.

disturbedfan121 · 11-19-2009, 04:50 PM

if you haven't fixed your car yet, and its still running like ****, why are you buying wheels and coilovers? fix your **** so it works right, then mod it. priorities aren't right in this situation man.

do what you want but IMO its dumb to put money into a car that could potentially cost a lot to fix.

i don't personally like the wheels you're looking at, but the overall look is good

This looks A LOT better then that first choice. The first choice just looks. . . well, childish and like ****. 2nd choice looks much less "forced".

But I also agree with disturbed. Fix your current problem first before it could potentially cause more problems. Stop ****ing around with trying to figure it out yourself, because that is obviously not working, and just take to somewhere Alex. Then drop it.

OWENthatsmyname · 11-19-2009, 08:32 PM

get legit wheels.

legit 16's are NOT expensive.

Nick Merrone · 11-19-2009, 08:42 PM

dont be a pussy alex, 0 offset please. or negative. haha. baller miata.

CleanNeon98 · 11-19-2009, 10:53 PM

Nick, when you do 0 offset so will I.

ikozhukhin · 11-19-2009, 10:57 PM

Yo don't do white. It looks out of place on your car.

DC2-Chris · 11-19-2009, 10:59 PM

PLEASE dont get sportmaxx's they r the downfall of a lot of cars. you can find something better used or just save up for legit wheels

OutToWinPAHC · 11-19-2009, 11:02 PM

Neon, dont mind Nick, in all respect hes just another fanboi. Whats the wheel specs you have now?

jjm4life · 11-19-2009, 11:08 PM

fix whats wrong with your car before modding it more. you might need more money to fix it then you think
16s are cheap. dont rock knockoffs. personally i dont think white looks great on a dark silver like yours.
