    Default Chaparral Mazda Miata Wheel 15x7 +38 Offset S15

    I am a newbe to this forum, although I am not new to Miata's. I have a 97 with the stock 14" rims. I am looking to upgrade the suspension and want to start with tires and wheels, as I need new tires now. Has anyone ever had any experience with the Chaparral Wheel, looks a lita like a Rota.

    We had a set on our 2002 Miata we liked them!


    We replaced them with the Konig Rewinds. I liked the look of the Rewinds just a bit more that the Chaparrels. YMMV

    Thanks for the input. I will take a look at the Rewinds, where did you get them? I really like that yellow Miata.

    Too bad! Hey and those Chaparral wheels on that yellow Miata POS has are still in great shape! I'm actually the one who bought those wheels from him a few years ago and now selling them since they do not fit with my new fender flares!
