I installed those Kumho Solus KR21 tires when I got the Miata Daisy wheels for Goldie in '10 and have been very happy with them.
I did get the 185/60R14 size, though, to minimize speedo error.
What is your experience with the 195/70 size vis-à-vis speedo error, handling, and rubbing?
I sure agree with Petros on the appearance of the MR2 wheels! I went with the Daisy wheels after months of fruitless looking for those MR2s in STL.

There is no rubbing for me, even at full lock. Handling is good overall. As far as speedo error, I haven't really checked, but it's not a huge issue for me. I tend to run at about 3000 rpm on the highway, which reads at about 60mph. Figure with a 5% increase in tire size this should be 63mph and I'm still under the speed limit. I found these wheels at a pick-n-pull about a year ago. Have been saving them. Definitely a good, stock-feeling, look.
