STR 518 15x8+0 wheels and 205/50 ZII Star Spec Tires for sale

Tires are 90% tread, wheels are in very good condition, except for one that has ~4 inches of rash/rub on the lip from loading my car into my trailer.

Dual bolt pattern, 4x100/4x114.3, Will fit miatas, some FWD stuff, whatever else???

Asking $550 plus shipping. Basically almost free tires out of the deal.

They will accept a wide range of widths and offsets, without any modification.

Check out this website: Wheel Offset Calculator | 1010Tires.com Discount Online Tire and Wheel Store it will break things down for you.

Stock is something around 6" width with +45 offset. Generally you've got something around 25mm of extra clearance to the inside and 45mm of clearance to the outside. As far as miata fitment, these are going to be very aggressive and require some modification beyond just bolting them on.
