14" Miata wheels on Yari
The Firestones on the stock rims were getting pretty sketchy looking, so I picked up some Miata wheels locally. Craigslist, of course. :)
They're 14x6, +45, 11.2 lbs and came with some decent 195/60/14s for $160. I wish I could slam it, but it's mainly my wife's car so it's not in the cards.. Alright thanks for looking! |

I have 15x6" '01 Miata wheels on mine. At 13.5-ish lbs it was a noticeable improvement over the stock steel wheels. I think the steelies are about 17 lbs so you should notice a bump in performance at 11 lbs.

I've noticed some difference, seems like it's got a *little* more pep in acceleration. Also feels worlds better in the corners, but that's just the newer tires talking.. Thanks. I'd like them a whole lot better if there was about 3" less wheel gap in there.. :) |

Looks good. I rock 14s on my Yaris in the winter.
