I'd be partial to 195/60R14 tires.

The contact patch will be wide enough without being too wide for the Miata, and you get decent sidewall without too much fuglitude. Tires in that size range from $40 - $70 on EdgeRacing.com (including a 200 treadwear Azenis for $60).

Best Tire: 195/60R14 Falken Azenis RT-615's!
They stick almost as good as my old r-compounds (tested on GA-180).

225/55R14 is the widest size that you can fit on the 6" rim... it's a B**** to get them on though.
 
prob will look into the azenis next month, that word seems to come out of alot of peoples mouth..lol

the generals that are on there look funny!
 
When I ran those wheels on the CSP car, I ran 225/45/14. My particular tire shop didn't have much issue getting them on, but there was a notible sidewall deflection. What are you doing with the wheels you had on the GT?

the mini wheels me and the guy traded.

i still have a set of the 93 15" gt blades, with bald tires.

Doh, I was hoping you had a set of later GT wheels.

I've been having trouble finding the width of the blades, though. Some sources state that they're 5.5", some state they're 6". If they're indeed 6" (should be on the back of the wheel somewhere), name a price and consider me interested.
 
i cant even remember my self.. but i believe they are 15x6.... i dont know if i can sell tho...had ahard time finding the 93 ones. But ill look tomorrow at the rim when i go by my moms place.

what did u want to put the gt wheels on? the lts?
 
Yeah, the LTS. I'm looking for something in the 14" range, but 6 inches or wider.

I'd have sworn the GT wheel was at least 5.5" wide.
 
yea i thought they were atleast too.. maybe the 93+ are 5.5?

how wide are the lts wheels? i kind of like those!
