I am thinking about getting these rims and I have two options for the tire size.

205/45 or 215/40.

Should I go with the Goodyear or Yokohama tires? Right now everything is stock on the car, but I do have plans to get a full accolade body kit sometime soon and maybe lowering it as well.

Also, what is a good rotor that doesn't rust?

 

Every rotor will show some rust on it, that's simply what happens when metal and rain combine. It's not a big deal though unless you plan on going years between brake jobs. As for tires, I would go with something different. Check out Tirerack for good suggestions.

 

I have one more question. Does anyone know what the difference between the Momo Corse RPM black and black/machined rims?

Corse RPM Black:


Corse RPM Black/Machined:


I can tell that the shade is a little different, but other than that is there any difference between the two?

 

The area around the hub has a machined finish.

 

get kumo escate colors

 

get 215/40

i had 205/40 before and the tire needs to be wider. didnt really like the look.

 

Miata.net has a nifty lil tire calculator to help you get the size right

 

Wheels look nice. As far as tires go, get the 215/40's Yokohama S-Drives I've heard are really good Tires. Yoko Avids are decent, but you could do better

 

those are some intense looking rims

 

Rims look good man... As for tires, I'd go with either the Yokohama's or if you have some $$ some Toyo Proxes.

 

215 will overall be a good width tire on 7-8inch width. 205 like mentioned above doesnt fill it and gives a hint of stretched look.

 

Well it also depends where u live also because if u live in the city then 205-40 wouldn't be a good idea because i live near the city and potholes are almost everywhere so I had to go a little thicker. I got 215-45-17 on falken ziex 912 and I haven't had a problem. try discounttiredirect.com they have good deals on wheels and tires.
