WANTED 15X6 Miata Wheel(s)

Post by CABoegemann »

I need one or more 15X6 factory Miata wheel(s). The 5 spoke that came on the sport package. Also, looking for a 14X6 factory wheel with hollow spokes. I'm not worried about the finish, but they need to be straight.

Selling a set for my codriver, all four in great shape. Two are almost new. we used them last summer on a SpecMiata but selling to help finance another set of 15x7s.

He's looking for 300/set.

If interested get me at strick_9ATrotarymiata.com,

They would be "pricey" but I just acquired salvage '95 M car with the rare and very lite weight BBS(15x6) wheels. Let me know if you have an interest.

Thanks Wayne, I am interested, but hold off for now. I found a set of the 14X6 BBS. They are also real light. 8.6 pounds with caps. I think the 225/50/14 may give me the most grip without changing the gearing. It came with 195/50/15's and I put 205/50/15's on recently. It's definetly the wrong direction, gear wise, for autocross. See how much they want anyway. Can you have enough wheels? :lol:

Thanks,
Curt

1 set of 15X6
1 set of 14X6 (hollow spoke)
1 set of 14X6 BBS

and only one set of tires :cry:

Just as in life, the man with the most wins.
$1200 for the set(3 caps and 4 valve stem caps) Also have torsen diff and full leather interior if you know of anyone in the market.
I dont even want to count the number of wheels for Miata's in inventory:
14x6 panasports
14x6 hollow spokes
14x5.5 early stock
15x7 K-1(x2)

Two questions,
1. Will the torsen easily install in an early (90-93) Miata?
2. Those two 15X7 K-1's Want to sell'em? :roll:

Thanks

Torsen: you would need to buy the complete rear assembly because you need the halfshafts too. but it does fit and this can be arranged. '95 torsen is the good one(type I)
K-1's: two sets are not enough for roadracing. I need more or a set of ProDynamics If you are not going SM, see if you can find a set of SSR's(<13# and no longer legal for SM)

I know someone with a "90 that may be interested in the torsen.

My bad on those K-1's. I thought you had two singles, not 2 sets. I thought I was going to pick a couple up, cheap. I have found a place here in Greeneville that powder coats wheels for $25. each. They do a really good job and can do a satin black, glossy black, and a metalic silver that is superior to any factory wheels I've seen. So, I'm looking for used wheels that are straight but don't look so great. I can get them sand blasted by a friend that works at a monument company. If you see any Miata wheels that fit that description, I am interested. I'm set on stock autocross wheels now. I would like a set of 15X7's to repaint and use on the street and future SM wheel. I really like those ssr's for the street, but the price!

thanks,
Curt

I'll call my friend in Atlanta about the torsen on Monday.
