Great video on fitting them fatties! My fender roller was too tall for the miata, so I just did it with the ol' hammer

Great video Greg. I just want to say that I just got my Miata a few months ago, and within the last week I just finished replacing the timing belt and water pump thanks to your awesome tutorial video. It took me 20 hours to replace the timing belt and water pump although I am only 16. This was also the first time I have ever worked on a car before and I did it with no help and minimal tools. My number one piece of advice for someone with no experience like me would be find a friend or acquaintance who has worked on cars before and have them help you. (P.S. I live in Florida and have no garage so another thing I learned is that I need to buy one of those tailgating tents and a big fan lol.)

Well done for taking the time to explain all this and how to practically make it work. ✨

[@lyndon_rich]

Im running a very conservative set up, 15x8 on 205s with +25 offset, im not SUPER low (probably around 1.5 fingers of wheel gap) but surprisingly this still would rub on fender liner at full lock (like in parking lots) and squeak super loud so i removed it. You could just notch out the section of fenderliner but living in southern california it wasnt much of a worry for me. I just pull my wheels off and clean out the fender well every few washes. Loving my current fitment but will eventually need adjustable upper control arms in the back due to too much negative camber for my liking. *I do have a mild fender roll*

[@dakotarichards5059]

[@ViRtUaLheretic]

I did exactly just this a couple years ago. I rock 15x10 6ULs and 145 Maxxis tires on my NB2. My advice would be to cut the tab at that top of the fender lip before rolling and pulling. I actually ended up taking my car to a fab shop and having them make a pie cut in the front fender so I could pull it out just a tad bit more and now I have all the clearance I need.

Had a 1999 10.Anni with 195/ 50 R 15 Hankook RS 3- 222 Semi slicks. Was OK, enough grip for all situations on a public road. Was also runnig perfect straight at full speed here in no speed limit Germany. Test drove the latest NB with 205 - tires. Straight line performance was not perfect so it seems 195/50 is the best compromise for a ( stock / Bilstein ) NB Miata if driven full speed. Now I have a ND with street legal big brake kit front ( K sport forged 4 pot ) so it was necessary to add 20 mm spacer for clearence the calipers to the stock 17" aloys what I want to keep. Actually I just bought a 2. set of stock 17" alloys for semi slicks. Straight line performance is still OK with the 205/45 tires, dont want a lower profile to prevent demages. Car has also the stiffer springs from Eibach ( Mazda - original item here in Germany ) and Bilsteins from factory.

As a recent NB owner I am super happy that I found your channel, every video is awesome. So it turns out that I am obsessed with the 15x9 Advanti S1+ 225/45 fitment on the NB2 with a lowered setup. I have read as much as I can on the subject but still unsure if I need to roll the fenders for a reasonable drop, I reallllly don't want to, the car I bought is unfortunately too nice. Any feedback would be dope.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

It depends on the offset of the wheel, but a 225 can be done on the NB with little to no fender modifications. I have a more recent vid on my channel about installing 15x9 FM Kogeki wheels with 225's, and I haven't modded the fenders yet

(in Germany we have to stick to the stock circumference of the tire ) Have a very minimum roll on the fenders (partly because i f*ed it up with too tall of a roler and do not want to roll more) and tugged the liner tabs in a little to clear in the front.

I have watched your videos about rolling fenders and thanks to you, my miata looks the way it is now. Haha but fitment industry was the reason for the wheel/tire setup. 😅

Great video on fitment and getting more. Saving it for future reference. My NB is currently on 15X8 6ULs with 205/50 tires. It's a very nice street setup as is , the car is lowered and there is no rubbing at all. I like it but I want wider once these are worn. With those wheels I plan on going to 225/45 all around. Maybe this summer, it will depend on how much I get to use the car, right now my "touring season" (road trips and vacations) is looking grim because of that damn virus.

[@vkotis]

I've been stuck between a 15x9 & 15x10. As AR-1's are pretty much the only tyre I can get in the UK in those sizes and seeing how nicely they fit on the video, I might go with 15x10's. But I'm only pushing 305bhp so they might be overkill. But they look beastly! Great video!

[@CamCanCars]

I'm hoping to fit 235/50 in rear and 225/50 in front on 15x10's with stock suspension (for now)... First step; wide body! Nasty roads here so want as much sidewall as will fit. Currently on 205/45r16's and much too rough esp when compared to fat 185/65r14 on stock wheels.

[@extrahourinthepit]

When I do get mine I think I'll run 15x8s, with either ET10 or ET0. I'd obviously prefer the wider of the two, but my top priority is no rubbing whatsoever under any real life circumstance. I don't want that car to be any short of daily friendly. Luckily that seems to be very much doable. Also where did your rear badge go?

[@dil6969]

Looks amazing, but this is a little hardcore for me. It's why I ultimately chose 15x7 6ULs with a 195 width tire. For a street car with stock power, this is more than enough and it's pretty much plug-n-play for any year Miata. I have yet to hear or see any rub with completely stock fenders/liners. It doesn't get you too much street cred, but tire options are plenty for a 15" wheel and it looks far better than the stock daises that so many NA6s came with. I also like the extra ground clearance they gave me, because streetcar. In the future, with more disposable income, I could see going to an 8" or even a 9" inch wide wheel. For now, I'm pretty content with the setup.

[@michaelrupp6905]
