Default Will 18" rims fit...

Im about to buy rims and am curious to know if 18" rims with 225/40/18 tires on stock ride height and no suspension changes will fit on my 92 4ws.

As far as the wheel size, check out this site:
http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

From the looks of it, it probably won't rub, but those are pretty big wheels/tires. I have 17's with a kit, and it barely looks ok, I'm gonna say, even with a kit, those big wheels are gonna look bad.

You don't have to worry, they will fit. If you want to be real sure that they don't rub, then you could just get P225/35R18 and lower your car

A kit will make it look higher...bringing the bumpers lower to the ground just accentuates the weel gap.

You definitely need to lower you car when you get any aftermarket wheels, let alone a kit.

it'll fit but if push came to shove, you may have to have a shop roll your fenders for extra protection.
