I <3 sportmax 002's. I'll be getting a set for my e30. Not a bad looking miata ya gots there.

Its a shame about the Neon. What ended up happening with it?

the insurance company gave me $3500 hundred for it and I took what I could off it, SRT steering wheel and MSD wires, braces etc...
I didn't want to bother to try and fix everything and decided to shop for another car.

The 002's are an okay wheel for cheap. I almost regret getting them instead of 6UL's, RPF1's or other lighter better performing wheels. But they look cool and fit the car so, eh.

Yeah in your case I can understand wanting to maximize weight savings. For the e30 its all about the sexy negative camber and tucking a 15x8.

I may just score some Borbet Type A's in 16x9 and do the euro stretch thing to really piss off the kiddies.

I'd love to see a neon like yours in the junkyard. I scored KW Var2's off a BMW e34 at a junkyard once for $80.

yeah, I wanted to find out where it was going to be able to track it down but eh....I'm sure whoever finds it is gonna be like "Holy F***ing score!! and then they'll see the SRT drivetrain and be like WTF?! lol
