brought them home last night and did a quick clean going to really scrub them down tonight...... does any one have a set of either 205 or 215/45 or 55/17 used tires.... |
if those are 17" rims, stick with a 50 series tire. thats the stock size, which mean it wont throw off ur speedo

or use the miata.net tire size calculator to find a size as close as possible to stock:

whats that symbol mean in the middle of the rim?
|
demon spawn motors?
I think it's also the kanji character for "unreliable but sorta fun" |

sorry, couldnt help it :pfanndina |
oh I remember now.. it's the symbol they put on abandoned cars on the highway, I always see it there

|
But all seriousness aside, are you able to modify those rims to take the emblem off?

btw.......my stock rims are 15 not 17's so my speedo will be off no matter what almost but i think im goint to try and cop the spedo gears out of the 3s which comes stock with 17's so that will solve my prob.....if not ill just deal with it
|
just make sure the diameter of the tires is the same as stock, then no problems.
|
Speedo won't be off if the overall size is the same. I have 15 inch winter rims with 4 inch tires, and for summer 17's with 2 inch low profiles.
It's the same 19'' diameter with either tire, so no speedo problems. |
where are you located? ive got some bfgoodrich g-sport, 215/45-17. my prob is my wheels got major fscked and i'm debating whether i should repair them or not since i'll be moving soon. so now im GI on these. the tires are still good, no leakage and the guys at NTB say theyre still good. i barely put 500 miles on them so theyre just about broken in.
