Will miata wheels fit?

Post by fadeone »

Does anybody know if stock miata rims would fit on a 4wd tercel?

yup, they will. anything with a 4 x 100 mm stud pattern will fit. here's a good list of other wheels that fit.

I installed "Gen I" Miata 14" Daisy wheels on Goldie a couple of years ago. There is also a Gen II Daisy-ish wheel that looks even better.

I went with 185/60R14 Kumho Solus KR21 (All Season type) tires, mostly to keep the speedo error to nil. The handling IS improved because of the wheels, athough the understeer is still present.

What would you recommend as a good offroad/snow tire?
