Which wheels?

[black roadster]

Looking to get some new "shoes" for my Miata.



This is the for the street tires and I will be running a 205/50/15 All Season as I have 15x8 Nickle 6ULs for the race tires.

I'm not looking for maximum performance as they are purely daily driver rims. Looks out weighs performance here.

I've ruled out the RPF01 since it will not work with a Wilwood BBK and while I don't currently have a BBK I want to keep that avenue open.

I was thinking a set of the 15x7 nickle 6UL (they just look good!) but Brian Goodwin says they don't fit on the BBK either. Gary says the 15x7.5 do fit with with a BBK but Goodwin says only the 15x8 and up fit with the Wilwoods. Anyone know for sure?

How will a 205/50/15 fit well on a 15x8?

Any other ideas or suggestions?

What's wrong with another set of nickel 8s? 15x7 may bolt-up without interference, but the tolerance may be too tight to allow any flex. My 8s clear the 11.75" BBC but they are too tight for the track.

Here's my 205 street rubber on 8s:


205s for 8s, 225s for 9s.

I run 8's with a BBK and a 5mm spacer.

I can probably make you a deal for a set of RPF-1's with a set of 80% or better star specs that's hard to pass up.

I've got a set of 6UL 15x8 in nickel finish with Toyota R1R's coming soon from Goodwin. Just found out they're going to be delayed until May, waiting for 949 racing - damn.

Make that Toyo not Toyota- damn auto spell check

Want to buy my "vintage" nickel 8s at a reduced price?

Why not just buy whatever and worry about BBK if/when that ever happens.
