17x9 6UL - FT86 fitment available soon

Hugely popular in the Miata community, the 6UL alloy wheel is now available for our platform!

I have no affiliation with @949 Racing, I just appreciate their products and service since my MX5 days... So there, just sharing for fellow tracktards on the board.

It's basically a light weight, low pressure cast that should be pretty reasonably priced. They are known to be extra tough. I'd get that if I wasn't already set with RPF-1s.

Should be around ~$239 as the 114.3 was at that price. Hopefully no 5x100 tax.

I had 15x8 6UL's for the Integra....





~12lbs and very well made. Why only a single valve stem instead of dual on the 17" though? The 17"s have always looked not quite as good as the 15" wheels because of the fatter spokes... but 17x9 @ under 17lbs in a durable wheel for ~$230-250 is nice!

These look great, definitely the wheel i'll keep my eyes on if they come out in 17x9. Anyone have pics of them in a larger size?

I'm hoping and posted asking for +35 but reading other comments and replies they don't believe +35 is best. I could possibly live with +42 but have arp studs so can run a spacer (im on springs/struts and not coils)
