WTB miata rims

Post by 962porsche » Mon Feb 10, 2014 9:51 am

i'm looking for a set of 15" rims that fit the NA Miata's .
cheap of course ! if they need to be repainted and a little beat up that's fine as long as they are not bent .

problem with bent wheels is I have to send them out to be straightened .
with out them doing any thing but the straightening part it's 70 dollars each wheel .

I don't care if they are kerb surfed I can fill that in my own shop with a little tig welding primer and paint .
I hade the RFP1's on the gay Ferrari 1 (delsol ) and liked them so I think they would also look good on the GF2 (Miata ) .

the RFP1's I have from my delsol are about the same as those are not really worth repairing for me any way .
with mine I have one crushed to the hub two bent like that and one straight one .
troy has a set with a little damage for a ok price .
Dave has a set of stock M-edition Miata rims and then there is a friend of mine that has a set of rims that I have never heard of the brand before and I think the co. that makes them is out of business .
I need two sets of wheels one for track use for the R6's and a set for street driving with all season tires .
my plan is to paint the rims either the lower color of the car fords grabber blue or the upper color Miata's white .
that is why I don't really care about the condition as long as they are straight .
I can tig weld in any dig smooth it down prime and paint but I can not straighten them in house that adds to the cost so for a 200 dollar rim new spending the money to buy them bent and them straighten them is not worth it for me .
I have not driven this car more then a mile and I have had it for a year now . so if some one was to give me 6500 for what I have into it I would sell it in a heart beat or if not I want to get the car on the road & track this spring .
so that's kind of what i'm looking at right now with this car .

OK.
I purchased Kosei K1s from tirerack on sale for $105/each. You might want to consider those.

I had a set of the K1's i gave to my nephew for his 4 lug BMW they were ok but a little cheaply made .
I didn't trust then enough to use them on a track ?

It is/was a very popular spec Miata wheel before there were so many options.
