    I think they would look.....err.........BLACK!

    You can get a 245/45-16, but I doubt that it will fit the wheelwell.

    What wheels are they? Actual JDM Mazdaspeed or Racing Harts from a Mazdaspeed Miata? And yea, Mazdaspeed Miata Racing Harts are 17-inch wheels.

    Per FM: After a fair bit of measuring, we determined we could fit a 245/45-16 under our 2004 Miata. A 245/40-17 would also have fit but that requires a custom 17x8" wheel. So we stuck with the 245/45-16.... We used the 16x7.5" size with a +43...

    Without a polished lip I think no.

    Actually I would go gunmetal or gunmetal w/ polished lip.

    I don't like Black wheels.... YMMV

    But Grey works for me! With a polished Lip!

    Black without a polished lip just doesn't do it for me. I say gun metal or bronze.

    I think black with a polished lip would look good on a silver miata, especially one with a black top.

    black wheels look good on any car that is not blue. The polished lip crap is too riced out for me.

    oh yeah, and suprisingly bronze looks really good on silver cars...just don't fade my style ok.

    To each his(her) own. If we all liked the same thing, life sure would be boring. As for being offended, DT, who cares? I, for one, love your car!

    Merv....

    I was kidding. Thanks though!

    The important thing is I like my car. My attitude is do what you like. Who cares what anyone else thinks.
