I am considering these wheels for street use on a white NA, what do you like

[MiataQuest]

Which ones do you like for function and automotive style?
Do you think I will need to roll the wheel wells? Cut? I do have some mild fender flares that could hide that.


Volk Racing TE37V Wheel 15x8.0 4x100 25mm (11.24 lbs) I would probably paint the centers gloss black.


Enkei RPF1 Silver Wheel 15x8 4x100 +28mm (11.3 lbs)


Work Equip 03 Wheel 15x8.0 4x100
I could not find the weight of these wheels ??

I would have voted for the RPF1s but I am slightly biased.

All good choices. depends on the look you are going for.
IMHO:
1) one of my personal faves on so many cars. traditional 5 spoke is hard not to love.
2) timeless autocrosser status. looks great, but pretty common.
3) I always think these look best on a lowered/slammed (if you do that) cruiser.

I'd love to see the 15x8 RPF1's in MDG (Metallic Dark Gunmetallic). http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/s572602937

Or bronze, the 15x8 RPF1's are available in bronze now, too...

If going with Work Equip's, I like the oldschool look of the Equip 40's. There are too many knockoffs of the '03's, unfortunately.

My design direction is to create a "special edition" car. I think the Work Equip wheels accomplish that but I am worried about the weight.

For a track day I will probably go with a separate set of Enkei's and tires.

I have had TE-37's for 15 years and they are the best. Extremely durable. I tried to find the weight a few days ago, but have lost that info. I am surprised at the lack of mentioning wheels weight on the forums and especially since it affects the suspension response. You cannot go wrong with these.

Maybe I can combine street and track use with these.

I voted for Volk Racing since they have a good looking design, and light weight, and lots of customization sizes on their website (the Japanese one anyhow)

Here you go, lots of different versions of the classics TE-37 style as well

Not too many wheels are in 15" x 8
There is this one though already painted the way I like. Hmmmm..

If you want to paint the centers of a wheel, please consider a dark/argent silver or gunmetal. Black will hide the design and flatten the depth.

Same here. I voted Volk but RPF1's are close behind only because the 15x8 RPF1's don't look as deep...part of the reason I went with RPF1's in 14x7. Please not the Equip 03. No offense to anyone with them or that like them.

[MiataQuest]

Maybe these with red caps. I am sold on the looks but not the weight. Decisions, decisions...
