Yeah I definitely don't wanna ruin the great suspension but I'm super OCD about wheel gap . Anyways on a side note, I think my brother knows you; Cody with the white miata.

i just recently spoke with wedsport about the fitment of 9.5 in the front and they said anything less that a +20-25 will have strut clearance issues.

i know that there is the press release work emotion car with 9.5 +30 all around... do you have any pics of the wheels/strut clearance?

i am getting ready to talk over with a couple sponsors wheel choice so i wanna make sure that i get a proper size and dont run into clearance issues.

With stock suspension the clearance is pretty bad but ill get you pictures with the clearance with the Teins.

maybe 'inspired by' but definitely not a copy as there are definite differences you can tell by just looking at pictures of each one

Very nice, I have always loved the 11R's and they look amazing on your car! I know not everyone likes the black on white, but I think it makes the car look aggressive in a good way.

Thanks for sharing.
Rick
