I think that Super Advan might make blue wheels. Go do a google search if you're that desperate though.

just get some wheels you like and paint them. on second thought please dont, because blue wheels on a black miata will look really bad. to sport blue wheels your car has to be super boro or covered with sponsors.

yeah actually blue on a black car wouldnt look bad..

but this is for my second miata its actually white... i thought Advan made a set of blues ill have tah check-em out anybody know of a good seller...

like i wrote before i know i can get them painted yah gotta read before yah post.

but i am kinda looking for that Anodized look like the Advans or, if anybody seen them, the blue rims that came on the white 30th aniversary Trans Am..

well on second though a darker blue would look better, but those are hot too. but the advans come with a nice lip and can be ordered with different offsets, i assume. but price?

These are bad too! but way to aggresive and expensive...

thoes works were sold a long time ago. i know you said u dont want to paint. but why not, that way you can get a wheel design you like and not have to pay out the nose for it. imo colored wheels like that look bad unless your car is extremly agressive, as i said above. but i cant tell you what to do.

i will probably end up getting a set and painting them, in my experience with paint i can probably get a really close to anodized look. i was just wondering about other options... i know podwer coating does wonders also.. thanks to those who posted some pics.

those camaros had blue rims??

how much does getting a set of rims powder coated cost? cause in like a week or two im gonna end up with a pair of ADR DTM's (16x7) but they are white, and white rims doesnt look good on a silver car (my opinion) and so im thinking i may powdercoat them to gunmetal.....so does anyone have any idea what it would cost?

We can forgive you because you're Irish and most of the tuning over there sucks.

forgive me for what like!...?...

im not looking to be forgiven for anything!...

and dude you ever been to Ireland/seen many cars?...you'd be suprised at the standard of tuning over here!...
obviously aint to the show standard of cars over in the U.S.A...
but a lot of irish cars are featured by the English mags and in English shows as well as Irish ones!...

ive gone through a bmw e30 325 sport/a miata/and an alfa romeo since i sold the car in that pic...and the one in the pic used to bring the most smiles to my face...

i swear man this forum is amazing.. do people do ANY research AT ALL before they post? wow.

that wheel you posted, you obviously know nothing about. i would LOVE to see you buy thoes for your miata. what the hell are you talking about you can get them in different offset, they only make that wheel in 4 sizes. all are 18". smallest is 8.5j, widest is 10j. and they cost.... 1300$ a piece. PLEASE BUY A SET FOR YOUR MIATA!!!111

damn.

no way, nothing would look better on a 3000$ miata than a 5000$ set of wheels
