I know its all up to me (and the girlfriend) but what do you guys think about these rims? They are pretty cheap and decent looking..
.These will be going on a 2004 red miata. Suspension will be kept stock due to the girlfriend not wanting to go slow over speedbumps and such.. she does not want to scrape anything at all cost. Will be 17" 4x100

I'm leaning towards the SSW's.. nice lip on those.
 
I like the flik wasp (anthracite) (second one..)
 
if she's not lowering it I think a solid color wheel looks best. a bright rim draws attention to the edge of the wheel and then the big gap.

well, they are one inch bigger.. it's the size that matters right? *laughs*

one inch bigger means a thinner tire usually.. and makes the gap look even worse!
 
I'd say the Wasp or the Cosmo. I had wasps on my P5 & MSP (in anthracite) and they always got compliments.

good god. those are nice! i'd be willing to sell the wheels i have now for those.
..but that won't happen.

either way, i think you should get your chick in check and tell her the thing needs to be dropped.
 
If those SSW Cosomos came in 15x7 I would have been all over them for my miata.
 
I"ll sell ya some real nice Full Royal (machined finish) Rota Slipstreams for $500 with used tires. :-)

I personally love the Rotas but need to sell them to have $$$ to autocross :-)

Talk about an addiction ;-)
