    Running Honda wheels, specifically GSR blades on an NB (photo inside of example)



    So as you can see from the photo, the Miata NB above has Integra GSR blade wheels.

    My question is will these wheels fit? I mean as in fit properly, seating on the hub, clearing the stock brakes, offset appropriate (not super sunk inside the wheel well) etc.

    Ive always been a fan of the blade wheels and would love to run this on my 2000 NB.

    Input is appreciated, thank you.

    pretty sure they'll clear dude, the 99-00 nb has smaller brakes than the 01-05. there's a 99-00 pictured too.

    regarding offset, it'll be fairly sunk. miatas need more aggressive specs than hondas do.

    so in essence, itll fit on the car, but offset and width won't be optimal for a miata

    ^Thanks for the input mang, damn I really wanted to run blades.

    There are replica blades but they are 15x6....fuuuuu. If only they made in 15x7 or 15x8 with a lower offset id be all over them.
