okay forum master.

[AngelsAndBombs]

Im starting to like you a tad bit, Timr.

[steevensi]

Ok
I used the search tool and looked at more than 60 pages...cannot find a clear answer...

96 miata, lowered with H&R,
wheels are 15x7.5 et 35.
Tires are 195/50-15

Will they fit if I add 25 mm spacers?

Thank you

[320icar]

Yes.


NEXT.

Don't be afraid.... this is your friend...

Most likely they will fit with the 25mm spacers. You'll need a good roll and probably some camber. I just used willtheyfit.com to compare my current setup of 15x8 et30 on 205/50s (which fits with a roll) to your setup on 195/50s (I have no idea what tires you want to run, but that's what I did)

Depends how low you go. Either way, you'll need a flat roll.

Here is my setup, 15x7 +38 with 25mm spacers with 195/50/15's.

You've got an extra 0.5 inch of width and your wheels will be 3mm further out. You'd be close to mine with 20mm spacers, 25mm's and you'll be further out.

Without 25mm spacer:

Wow, thanks for the info.
Do you rub?
How low are you...just springs or full coilover?

Raceland coilovers, pretty low, moderately slammed for sure.

I don't rub, but the fenders are flat.

Go here: www.willtheyfit.com and enter in my stuff, then enter yours and see the difference you'll be dealing with.

This is my height:

[slipNslide]

15x7.5 +20.3 and 15x8.5 +7.6


at this ride height it shreds tire unless rolling fenders



raised the rear a little, still no fender modification, rubs and shreds tires on sharp turns
time to roll and pull the fenders!

Sorry to be a noob, but what do you mean by FLAT ROLL?
I know what rolled or pulled...but flat, I don't know

And DANM I love the color of your car!

[Opgedronken]

A quick one, 15x8 +10 with 195/50/15 Toyo R1R (Wide tyre), camber pending alignment.
Ride hight low enough not to have any wheel gap, maybe tuck 1/4" of tyre, but nowhere near mod slammed.
Will I get away with anything but a flat roll?

[corkscrew]

I have the same specs with a flat roll, and I don't rub at all. Pic for reference of my ride height

[Opgedronken]

That's a very nice stance, it's probably exactly what I'm going to be at.
I'll try about a 15-20º from flat roll at first, if I rub I can always go totally flat .
Thanks!

[corkscrew]

I would go totally flat from the beginning. I used a block of wood and a rubber mallet and it took under an hour for all 4 corners done

[sb253]

ya theres no difference in "outer-fender looks" between a half ass roll or a flat roll. Just bang 'em all the way

[corkscrew]

Also, the front fenders have a tab with a screw. Be sure to cut it out or just keep an eye on where it is so you don't poke the fender. Ask me how I know...

Similar setup to me. I have a flat roll with 2.5° F / 3.5° R camber. rubs occasionally but looks damn good.

[Opgedronken]

Thanks guys!
Sdemo Your car does look damn good, so I'm glad I'll be sporting a similar stance .
About not wanting to roll all the way, I'd like do keep a small angle so I can clean it.
I'm 100% sure it will rust with a totally flat roll.
We'll see though I'm going to have to roll it as far as needed anyway, if that means flat, so be it .

When you're rolling the fenders, bend the lip upwards, all the way flat. No pull, just a really good roll.

Is that what the spot near the top of the fender arch is from in your pic? Is the screw for the liner so it can just be removed?

[corkscrew]

Yeah the little dot is the screw poking the fender. Just take it out and hammer the tab flat or cut the tab off

You could always get the small cosmetic fender flares (GR Craft style), they will mask that spot.
I might get them too if I'm not satisfied with how the edge of the lip looks after rolling.
I haven't often seen an un-mangled fender edge after rolling them flat.

[KDL323]

Put them on my car and got them to fit. Everything checks out, it's just that I wouldn't be able to turn and drive normally. I tested my friends wheel with similar specs, but a 35 series sidewall and it's pretty much the same. The inside of the wheel was resting on the inner wheel well. It was worth a try.

break the hammer out cause those are sexy
