I’d love to see POV driving videos of most of all the Miata’s! I think most people would enjoy it as well! The v8 Miata and 2broke sound soo good

[@CashedOutCars]

I have a new style of POV video in the works! I’m just practicing with some new equipment. Stay tuned, I’ll be working on these over the next few months!

[@kach0937]

finally caught up and glad to see you're still making videos, I just got my nb2,5 and my searches were taking me to stuff you posted a long time ago, as you can see I'm now looking at getting new alloys / tyres and surprise surprise you have a 2024 video on that!!!

[@scorchez]

Great video. The way you shot the angles so we could see how much the tire pokes was so helpful. Most people providing photos or videos of wheel fitment shoot 3/4 angle rear which is not the most helpful. You get it. Thanks for making this video.

Gosh, I have absolutely no idea why I subscribed to your channel. I am all about original stock MX-5s. But you do good videos. So curious I guess 👍. The extent of my “modifications” is to fit 205 (oem 195) /50R16 PS4 tyres. Rims unchanged. 😂 And my insurance company still demanded I register the “modification” with them. They didn’t charge me any extra so that was a relief….

The higher sidewall profiles give a cushier ride with more pneumatic dampening, so expect a harsher ride if going with low profile sidewalls. This could be an argument for using the smaller diameter rim and a higher profile sidewall if you want extra comfort. Another consideration is lug spacing and distance. Some rims have multi hole lug patterns. The NC has a different lug spacing than the NA and NB. The NC has a 5x4.5 (114.3) bolt pattern, where the NA/NB is a 4x100. Also, carry a tire plug kit, as the NC has no spare, and if you do have a spare, check it periodically.

Can you make a update on the turbo Miata

[@kach0937]

does anyone know if 15x7 with 20 offset with 195/50/r15 will fit on my stock NB2.5 or if rolling or fender work will be required?

[@pheonixrising0634]

running 15x9 with 225/40/15 and +38 offset on my nb and it sits pretty much perfectly I think you can get away with a bit more on nbs

[@matthew-ph6xo]

Dear Cash, Can you make a video about fixing the A/C in an NA or converting it to R134a? I would really appreciate it

[@CashedOutCars]

Hi! If I ever put AC in one of my cars I will make a video, but at the moment I don’t have plans to unfortunately

[@stumpbumpers]

Converting to R134 requires rebuilding the existing AC compressor with green seals and o-rings. Also, the lines require adapters to charge it. It’s best to buy a new R134 kit, including lines and compressor. It’s a straight forward installation. If you put R134 in the R12 system it will destroy all the black seals and o-rings. If anyone before you has charged it with R134 it maybe toast. That’s what happened to mine prior to me.

[@stuntzcsgo8159]

Great timing, was about to buy sone new wheels n tires. Ive a question. Will 195 50 r15 tire fit on a 15x8 +25

[@CashedOutCars]

Perfect! They should fit, but will be on the stretched side and may be beyond what wheel and tire manufacturers recommend. A 205 tends to be more suited for 8” wide, unless you’re going for stretch

[@NickVillecco]

I’m actually running 195/45/15 on my 15x8+25s so you will be fine. Just a little bit of stretch.

[@stuntzcsgo8159]

@@NickVillecco thanks :)

[@Anon-greyman]

Ill go back and look for a video about the V8 but whats the Gas mileage like in that baby? Im assuming like 22 highway maybe more considering the lack of weight

[@CashedOutCars]

It’s much worse than you’d expect! I’ve been getting 10-11, it’s got a 750 carb on it that’s a bit big so it’s super rich. It also needs quite a bit of love that’s soon to come, it may get better after some fixes

[@Anon-greyman]

@@CashedOutCars 10-11 is certainly not great. Its definitely running RICH. best of luck to you sir. Its a very cool build. Also, thanks for the entertainment.

[@MeisnerMotors]

I get about 15-17 on my built 302 Miata. I haven’t been able to get any good highway mpg tests in bc it’s just too much fun to rip

[@EdithCts]

Would it be safe to buy a Miata with 197k miles and an oil leak?

[@marcusfinanger1116]

Yes
