14 inch Wheels, What do you think??
150 bucks from eBay, 
Mazda Miata Mx5 Rims and tires can't go wrong,
1 inch spacer in the Rear 3mm spacer in the Front and don't forget to shave another 3mm of the Caliper mount
What you guys and gals think?

if you did not compesate for the tire size (does not look like you did). you will be racking up the miles faster than you should. plus the speedo will be wrong (reading faster than it should)
not my style....
how much did you have to shave off the brakes???

I would be scared to drive a car with 1 inch spacers...
Doesn't seem worth it all that trouble you have to go through, but if you really liked the wheels, then that's your only option.

Re: 14 inch wheels what do u think ??
Looks good! Do 14s work well in winter conditions? One inch spacers, very cool, I hope they are ok for you it was a great eBay deal, by the way...
