Re: will 235/45/17 tires RUB on my lowered 93 EX? (Marco93EJ)
im lowered 1.9 in on my 97 ex sedan. Making tight turns i rub on my stock wheels and tires, 185/65/14, so im guessing your gona expletive up some tires and wheel wells. for 17 in wheels go for a 40 or a 35 series tire.and nothin bigger then a 215, IMO

do you know the offset?
my offset was weird, if you rub, first pull off the rubber trim inside the wheel well and see if it improves. if not, then you gotta roll.

i think its 38 offset, thats what it says on the rota site for circuit 8s. Which overall size will be closer to stock, 16s with 45 or 40 series. Stock is 14 with 65 series

To get as close as you can mess with this tire calculator.. http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html
