As mentioned above, the lower your are, the more it will camber/tuck...
When I was on NF210 springs (modest drop), it looked like my BMW wheels were sticking out. Then I dropped it on coilovers and it tucks (245/265 tires too).
can any1 confirm if these will rub without fender mods?
(redrilled style 95's)
That depends entirely on your tire size and ride height.
With my 245-35-19 and 265-35-19 tires and Megan coilovers (1 finger gap), I ever so barely clear with tightly rolled front fenders and rear lips that have been pretty much completely shaved off... And I mean it barely clears.
It would take pretty narrow tires to clear with no fender mods (like 235-35-19 all around for example), and even then it will be close assuming you are low.
Of course, everything above is assuming redrilled with no spacers.
so you'd have to stretch to fit these ? fatter tires definitely wont fit without fender mods?
No that's not what I said. I would stretch if I am trying to avoid fender mods. Not even sure if that would be possible because the offset on these rims is fairly aggressive.
With an aggressive fender shave front/rear, 245/265 fit nicely.
I've even thrown around the idea of widening the rears to 19x12 and doing a 295-30-19 (widening towards the inside)
For people looking for center cap options, you could always hit up a company like www.r2-limited.com and they might make them for you. They do custom center cap badges (faces) for lots of Miata guys.
That looks really nice. There's a set of these for sale in dallas - with good tires - for $599 at a pick and pull. You guys are tempting me. It looks very OEM.
