Got some fitment issues up the front. 20 * 8.5 +25 rims.

The wheel is physically too large in rolling diameter and is rubbing on the top suspension arm. So I need to hit the drawing board.

Anyway the test fit...

What are you guys thinking? Improvement or not? I am going to slam the car back to the ground with the new rims, remove the wing, and try and line up a carbon fibre duck wing and roof spoiler.

I think the new rims need a new look...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

yea they look hotttt,

slam to the ground, get the duck lip if you want, but i dont know about the roof spoiler i dont really like the look of them

but definently make these rims fit and slam the car to the ground :D

what size tyre on the front?

i like it but i dont know how you'll get around the front lip been a mile from the road purely because of the size of the rim you wont be able to reduce it much.

still nice wheels an all.

ROOF SPOILERS ARE FKN AWESOME.

Yeh im worried this suspension arm might be the death of me!

I took some pics to show it. Hopefully with a 5mm spacer on the front and a stretch say, 215/30/20 on the front. But turning still might pose problems, and I think full lock is out of the question lol.

But I mean come on bulk people have fitted 20s before to 33's (all be it chromies :(), surely there is an easy solution. Aftermarket suspension arm (thats less bulky)?

Oh and the tire on the front atm is a 245/35/20 I think. I wont go that wide on the front with the new tire, which will save me some space... but the new tire will have tread aswell (where thisone is down to the wire), so i fear it will even itself out abit there!

The Cannon Exhaust is about to go though. Looking to cut the tip off and weld something a bit quieter on the end to try and get a crisper less droney note

cool lower lip on the bar man, wheres that from?? accentuates the front even more than normal...which im starting to love :)

Just Jap. Took a lil bit of trimming and adding to fit. Otherwise it aint too bad. Just replaces the factory lip. Gives it more of a sporty look to the front without looking over the top whilst keeping the strength and fit of the factory frontbar.

    • Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT

    • Heater wasn’t working in my 32  so I decided to pull my dash out ( sounded like a great idea at the time) so initially I was sure the heater core was blocked. When I pulled it out turns out that the heater blower actuator was cable tied so it stayed shut and this prevented the heater core from doing its job as well as flowing. so currently the dash is out the heater core is out and seems to be fine but I think I’m in over my head  and need someone that knows what they are doing to take over and get it finished. I’m located in mt Annan, nsw 2567 if anyone has any ideas or suggestions please let me know
