You have PM shortly.
Is wholesale price going to be any different than a trade-in value? I only ask because I received a couple trade-in estimates when I was looking at Fiesta ST's and honestly they were quite insulting. The only thing I haven't tried yet is a used car place like Carmax (they gave us a good deal on ym wife's old Protege).
The only ones that I know of that do not fit are the 15x7 +41 RPF1s.
Edit: 15 and 16" Panasports don't fit the sport brakes either.
Wonder if there are 15" steel wheels that would fit.
Honestly I dont know the market for M2's but the market is in the process of being flooded with late model used vehicles. over 90k from ford alone within the period of Nov. to Feb. Great time to buy, horrible time to sell or trade.
What brand? And update it to what? Lol
You're kidding right?
Well, actually I'm not shocked. You're new to Miatas. 15" steelies are all the unoriginal slammed kids run.
IDK, I want something sort of light and cheap. thats why I like the Konig feathers. $100 per wheel and only weigh in at 15lbs. the Sparcos are only $105 and the sport edition mesh style wheels are under $100. $400 for a set of brand new wheels doesn't seem that bad.

Well, I got the car back this afternoon. It ended up being the relay/harness for the fog lights. When I installed the fogs, I missed one of the retainers that holds the harness upright and it let water/washer fluid pool in the relay and shorted it out. Darn it...
Sparcos and Sport Editions are terrible and heavy. This page is a great start for wheels that work very well on a Miata: http://www.good-win-racing.com/Mazda-Performance-Parts/Miata/Wheels-Tires/Wheels.html
You will see many options between $90 - $125 per wheel.
Gotta pay to play. Just be thankful you aren't buying Porsche wheels.
Heck, I'd love to find a nice set of wheels for the STi for a grand. It's all relative.
I had sport editions for winter wheels on my Neon and they were great! Heavy but I'll tell you what, that helps in the snow. Harder to spin the wheels easily, seriously.

Good point.
I had Sport Editions for winter wheels on the MS3. They were bad, but they got the job done.
And... when I cracked one from hitting a pot hole it was cheap to replace haha.

I had looked there before but I'm looking again right now since I found a general altimax arctic in a 15" size that will keep the speedo and everything really close to stock.
I think I'm going to go with the Konig Feather wheels in silver. I prefer the black but they're out of stock and Melissa doesn't like black wheels. I may still end up refinishing them in a darker shade of silver/grey though.

I put the bags in the bed so I'm fine. My only issue is the wipers, both have a section that it won't clean. I replaced the wipers last year, and I replaced the arms recently, didn't help.
