    Got my TRM C3 15x9's on today

    I think they look ok. They are just rollers since this car will sadly be outside for a few weeks this winter :-(. The garage is getting a revamp.



    Tires are a tiny 205/50/r15.
    I am in the middle of pulling of all the lightweight parts (CF hood and FG trunk track tires wheels ect.) so it looks a little goofy. I will also drop it another 2 inches all around and put the lip and splitter back on since its just a looker and not a runner in the winter.
    Hope you like them. Not bad for Miata wheels.....lol

            So funny thing..... I have had these mounted and ready to go for over 6 months now. but with autoX and road racing this year I never needed to put them on.

            Get a set, they are not as light as my track set but I like them enough to reccomend them.

                22mm if I remember correctly. They were made by my friend Trent. They are hubcentric all around so no wabble issues. I can get you an exact measurment is you would like. Just not tonight ;)

                  I actually rather like them. They'd benefit from a 225 series tire though...

                      I hate high offset wheels. And those 'fender flares' don't add any additional clearance.

                          I would think they do....why do you say NO?

                          especially w/ car lowered and having more neg camber.

                            Considering the installer decides everything about those fenders, Im going to have to disagree with that. You can make them higher than stock allowing for more clearance even if they arent wider than stock.

                              At this they aren't fender flares. I agree that they do allow you to lower the car more, but they do not allow for a wider wheel to fit under them. It's basically just something to cover up the cut out fender, not flare out to allow for a wider tire.
