hey MR,

I have some spare E30 Basketweaves and I was wondering if they were similar. Thought it should be nice to have full sized spares. I don't have the wheels with me but I think they are 14x6.5 ET30?

thanks,
Josh

The ET might be 43, but not too sure. They seem to fit though.

The 14" OE BBS wheels for the e30 are 14x6 +30. Different from the Miata.

The 15" optional wheels is 15x7 +24.

The centerbore is 57.1mm on the e30, the Miata is 54.1mm so they will fit, but without centering rings you need to take a little more care installing them.
