Thread: WTB 14 x 7.0, 14 x 7.5 for Miata

    Default WTB 14 x 7.0, 14 x 7.5 for Miata

    I've got some Kumho Ecsta 710s (205/55/14 and 225/50/14) and need to find some wheels (used and straight) for a track set up.

    I' thinking 7.0 wide for the 205s and 7.5 for the 225s. Anybody in the DFW area got some Miata wheels that fill the bill? Oh yeah, and are pretty cheap!

    Good luck finding anything even remotely close to those sizes. 14x7/7.5 is probably going to be a custom size.

    Did you buy the tires used? If not, just curious why you chose a staggered setup, since Miatas tend to prefer same tire size at all four corners. In other words, just 'cause your SHO understeers doesn't mean you have to inflict the same fate on the Miata.

    Just run the 14x7 all the way around.

    I stand corrected! I didn't know anyone sold inexpensive 14x7s!

    You haven't seen the FreakSHO shod in RA1s, have you? Understeer hasn't been a problem!

    If you are still interested in a staggered setup, there is always diamond and circle racing wheels.
