Wheel / tire size combo for track use
Wheel/tire combo for track duty
I have a 15x9 wheels with 245/40 RS4s on my 2003 Miata for track duty. Thinking 9in wheels and 245 tires for the GR86 would be great. No idea on the right wheel size (17 vs 18in) and offset, or tire ratio. |

Or!
How about people ask questions like this one in the already dedicated sections. You know... "Wheels | Tires | Spacers | Hub -- Sponsored by The Tire Rack Specific topics relating to wheels and tires." and "Tracking / Autocross / HPDE / Drifting What these cars were built for!" |

On 1st gen, A lot of people run 17x9 with 245/40/17 for autocross and track days, not sure about more involved/frequent racing but anyways. That's what I run, perfect combo for the 1st gen. Not sure if 2nd gen will need a wider tire with the extra HP, but I'm guessing 245 will be just right..

imho if you're on the oem (or an oem replacement like koni or bilstein) strut you're probably going to be served just fine by a 17x8 w/ 225/45/17 and more camber via camber bolts and maybe a camber plate. This is all based on the mk1, I've heard rumors it's less good on the mk2 but haven't seen any proof. As above higher offset needed in the rear anyway so getting a +45 would be my baseline. |
