Hey guys. I'm getting the wheels and tires for my Exobusa (mevabusa) here in the USA. I've got various feed back on what size wheels and tires fit and some conflicts with no that doesn't fit or it does but you have to trim the fenders. Can you guys post pics of your wheels and tires and what size wheel and tire they are so I can nail it down. I was going to get 17"x7" wheels with 205/40R17 rubber. Now I'm leaning towards 16"x7" wheels with 195/45R16 rubber. Thanks in advance guys.

Can anyone tell me the lug pattern on the Mevbusa. I have a spare set of Miata rims that I'm unsure if it will fit.

No standard Miata won't fit, which is a shame as the come in lower offset than ford/Peugeot lug patterns and would be useful on the sonic to reduce spacers...

Remember it's your car. There is nothing stopping you using some bolt pattern adapters/spacers.
Also, why not use mx5 hubs and half shafts? Get them made up to mate to whichever differential you're using.
Now you have the choice of wheels that you want...
