will miata rims be a good fit for temp wheels?
 
i bought my car with some pos rage racing star 18" rims on it and for my first real mod im going to be doing suspension. if i buy a shocks/struts that drop my cars ride height any the rear end will be rubbing in the wheel well. i also do not like the size or look of my wheels any. i am planning on downsizing to some gram lights 17's which i think would work much better anyways.

so here is the question.
will stock mazda miata rims fit on my car for temporary wheels until i can afford the g-lights?

i would put stock fc rims back on the car but fc parts around here are fairly hard to find and i know how much it costs to ship wheels+tires.
i will be able to pawn the 18's>buy some new wheels>buy my suspension>buy the gram lights.

No Miata's use a 4x100, not a 4 x 114.3

any suggestions that will fit? anything at all basically because i will probably only be driving with them for a month or so.

err 110?

pretty sure miata is actually 4x100mm.

have you looked at the price of gram lights? pawning your rims now wont get you anywhere near what your wanting. unless you found a really good deal, youll only have enough for MAYBE two. BUT, thumbs up on the choice of rims :)

$552.00 on thier website. i like the 57s series seems like the price will be around that most places i've found em.

309 i was kinda assuming that the 552 was all 4.... this makes me think probably not so much

Miata's are 4 x 100 with a 45mm offset.

fixed,

But I thought all NB MX-5's used a 40mm offset only the NA used a 45mm offset.

The 99+ Miata's do have a 40mm offset
