Default Miata rims on Civic?

Hello guys,

I am currently looking for full set of 4 rims and tires, and I accidently found these rims from Mazda Miata '90-'93, from friend of mine.

They are 14" - 4x100 pattern:


Do you think will fit my '94 Civic LX, or I have to modify them?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, they should fit. Ugly as fawk, but they'll fit. Also, I don't know how you could "modify" wheels to adjust fitment...lol

They'll physically fit on the car. That being said, I'm not sure they'll fit well. I'd assume the backspacing is good enough to clear the brakes. I'm not sure on the offset, though. Then again, the wheels aren't wide enough that offset would be much of a problem as far as rubbing or wearing out the wheel bearings.

Thanks a lot for the quick responses guys!

Actually I'm gonna pass on these wheels, because they need I little mods to fit my Civic.
The center hub hole is smaller, so I need to use lathe to make it wider,which will cost additional $120. The same price as I am paying for the set of 4 wheel :-)

About the offset I don't know. I have buddy which put them on his CRX.
They are ugly as hell, that's for sure.
But I need them for racing, not for the street, so I don't care how they look like.
I just need additional set of 4 rims + tires.

I am STILL LOOKING, so fill free to hit me with an offer!

Those look like those Mugen wheels I see on peoples' Civics... DR28's are replicas of the originals.

What about 'em?

Do you sell them?

Are they 4x100 and how much money with and without the tires?
