I have Rikens black with a polished lip I belive they are 15x8 wit 205/50/r15 all around.
But I like any thing mesh like ssr, epilson's, Autobahns, Enkei's, Theyre all Hot and hard to find. I think 1st gens just need some meshies they complete the look.

Thanks man, don't forget to get some side pics of your car as well! Yeah, I know there not cheap but they look awesome! Hopefully I'll find some someday. I actually have Watanabes on the back of my ride but they are just the black one piece wheels and they are 14 inchers. I'll through the fronts on once I finish getting my coil over perches welded onto my gsl-se struts. (I have 2 different bolt patterns on the car at the moment. I happen to have these watanabes lying around so I'm using them but I'd like to get 15's or 16's.
Wow, that car looks mean! I'd love to know the sizes on those wheels/tires as well as the offsets. In the last couple years I have noticed people going with wider wheels that are just about flush with the fenders, IMO that looks much more agressive and I love the look.

I have taken them to 4 wheel shops and none of them will even try to straighten them. There are no spacers used or fender roll to get them to look like this. They are 15x8 with a "0" offset wrapped in 195x50s. The tires just barely cover the rims and really expose them to damage from curb rash or in my case crash. I am really pissed off about it and am working on getting some new ones right now.

I'm pretty happy with my new wheels. 13X8 Revolutions (with 215/50 Sumitomos). Very light. They are a big help when hunting Miatas on the autocross courses.

Surely there's somone out there that can respin those aluminum shells. Someone even posted about a company that would custom make shells to order. Don't recall the name of the company.

I have PLS Le Mans in 15". Kinda like them, but don't have pics of the car right now. However, this is how the rims look:

They're 3-piece rims, bolted. Mine have the centres painted to match the car's red, and only the rim polished. But I need to clean them seriously...

14x6.5 CSA's. I don't know the model. They look a hell of a lot better than the stockers. Will be repainted and polished in the next few weeks. They are a little rough up close. Also getting better tires.
