Minilite Wheels and All Other Likewise Variants Mega Thread

Minilite all the things. I just finished installing these on my Falcon project.

Looks awesome! 2 door Falcon with Minilites, can't get much better than that.

In reply to ddavidv :

Yeah, great call. Which brand did you go with?

I picked these off of marketplace.   I was told they are "chaparral " brand.  15x7 4x100

My junkyard big brake kit (2017 yaris se rotors and 2010 corolla calipers) needed a little love to clear the wheels.

Chaparral wheels are built for Miatas. They might even have the old 70's M logo on the center caps. I think you used to get them from Moss, now it's GoMiata iirc. Decent wheels. 

Just found this thread, somehow. 

15x8 versions of the classic seven spoke (to save weight over an eight spoke) Miata daisy. 

I have some my Mini on 10" Minilites, I'll dig up some pics.

I want to say that Chaparral wheels came from R Speed in Atlanta. Others may have carried them, too, but I believe it was an R Speed offering.

Those look pretty awesome. 

These are Enkei Compe in gunmetal gray. I love them on the MR2. Got them from AxeHealey and have loved them ever since!

This must have been a weekend thread. I missed it as well. 

These replaced a set of Diamond Racing steel wheels. The weight reduction made a significant improvement in acceleration. As a bonus, they look 100% better. 

How many Minilites can you fit in a Miata, with tires, without using the passenger seat? Four.

And installed.

TIL that you can pack a pair of subs behind the seats in a Miata and still have a usable trunk.
