Sweet new wheels might fit Fb's

These just came out yesterday. I'm planning on running these on my turbo miata, but I think they my look good on Fb's if they fit.

The cheapest I've found them so far is from www.ezaccessory.com. They have 4x110 to 4x114.3 adapters for $150 (for 4) and you can custom order 4x110 to 4x100 for $160 (which is what I'm planning on doing once it's wheel time).

What ever you do don't use ftwimport.com or

lug-nuts.net or

billetadapters.com or

ftwadapters.com or

gaugewerks.com

They are all owned and ran by the same guy and if you need any customer support. Forget about it. The web sites all say, just call us for a refund. Problem is .. they won't answer the phone, or email. Stay away from the above businesses. Consider yourself forewarned.

Now back to your favorite channel of ****, thank you very much!

i admit, the wheels are enticing.
