          These https://philstireservice.com/shop/jrw-series-500/ ?
          They don't look bad, not expensive, and 57.1 but ET10 would need to check how they would clear front/rear (on the inner side agains coilover in the front) and rear shock.

          Have you ordered one to test fit ?

              I just did :) Thank you! So they are Miata spec wheels (again , damn!) Why doesn't someone make a set that is e30 specific since there is obviously demand.... I guess not as much demand as there is for Miatas.

              May still order these.

                I ordered them this spring and have them here. stock strut is just barely cleared with a 15mm spacer up front. I'm waiting on tires to mount and know for sure how much clearance I have. the bore is spot on, wheels are damn light and I will say pretty sexy looking in bronze lol

                Edit - You will need to modify your fenders obviously. There was one guy that was able to roll and pull his fenders enough to cover these however.

                  Yep, fender work is a given . What size tires are you installing on these?

                              Next question: if I purchase the 15x9 6ULs is it better to stay with a 225/45 or run a 245/40? I know it's been said on the Miata forms that a slight stretch results in faster lap times, just wasn't sure if this would also apply to e30s. For reference my e30 is a dedicated track car weighing in around 2500lbs making 300whp running GCs with aero front and rear.
