Jongbloed Series 500 Availability & 15x10 Alternatives?

[citizen_insane]

I'm currently building a turbo car with the expectation of running 245 Rival S 1.5's on 15X10 wheels. The problem is that after deciding to run JRW Series 500's the wheels ran out of stock and they haven't been ordered by the supplier yet.


I'm starting to get worried they won't make another run of them, so now I have a conundrum. I can either wait for Phil's to order another run of the wheels (which could be quite a long time, they've been saying they're ordering more "later this year" since early 2018) or I need to find another option.


Is anyone else making a lightweight 15x10 with 4x100 bolt pattern that will fit an E30?

Edit: Looks like the 6UL 15X9 +12 Exocet wheels are also sold out...FML

245 fits perfectly on a 9” rim, so 10” isn’t really necessary for that size so it may give you more options ?

Jongbloed 15x9 e30 fitment rims are expected to come next spring, and there is an active waitlist for them with Phil’s shop.

I realize a 245 will fit a 9" wheel, but from what I can tell, the Rival S 1.5's are faster on a wider wheel according to the Miata guys.

My buddy also found these, might be a good option:

also, anything miata fitment (>+25) will require a silly amount of spacer to fit IMO. needs to be <+20 with 12-20mm of spacer

I also believe you can get Rota grid V 15x9 +0 ? but that requires a LOT of fender work to fit a 245 square.

Anyone ever hear any rumors to if they are ever going to offer those wheels 5x120?

The car's getting Kamotors ultra wides, fender clearance is a non issue :mrgreen:

I am concerned with the Miata offsets though, looks like I'd need to run a 31mm spacer with the Dekagram, that's a lot...

yeah, dont bother with miata/civic fitment. buy wheels that fit. plenty of options if youre running flares. XXR makes some options as well.

Care to give me some examples? Because I'm really struggling to find any 15X10 besides the JRW's and the Dekagram that aren't 3 piece. If I have to, I'll run custom 3 piece wheels, but I honestly don't really like how the look, weigh, or cost.
