Diameter doesn't matter, it's the width.

7.5 +45 will fit fine.

yeah, it'll be close to the 215/45 R17's that the MY05 GT had. A touch larger if anything

cheers mate :)

Rolling diameter will depend on your tyre width and profile.

www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html --> do calculations based on your stock wheel/tyre.

If you intend on "dropping that shit" later on, then don't go any wider than stock as you'll rub for sure.

That pic with the wheels is of a WRX Coupe. Nice. 8) There was only 399 Australian delivered ones and most of them have either been stolen, engine blown as they were tuned for 100 octane :shock: , or wrapped around a tree!

That'll look good mate, and many others have said, 19x7.5 is fine with a 45, just don't drop it on it's arse...
