I have actually sen a few horror stories that linked to that page. there was a guy going around on the RX7 forums and the miata forums selling ZG flares and he would link that site. then you would pay and he would disappear. it happened several times. so be wary and always contact the seller before buying as there is another guy doing the same. I recommended ronin because they made mine in high quality (one survived the impact with the guardrail and the other three didn't make contact during my accident) plus I personally know them from the V8 RX7 world

the placement of the flares on the red/orange one are the best!

Had no idea, thanks for the heads up. I spoke with Ronin as-well, but he quoted $240 IIRC not including shipping, but if they hold up as you say, they may be worth it. I would prefer a set in urethane, but they seem to not exist usless you have a truck.

Not for me, I dont like the look at all. Everyone is different but to me it kills the SC's lines.

my guess would be 16" wheels 10 rear 8 front i dont have a guess for tires. easier to search s14's in this case as they are more likely to have those wheels and the s14 is pretty close fender wise to our cars.

goodness, those DRW can be up to 16x10 -108! LOL. Given that fender flare, that's my guess

Im looking at both 16x10 and 15x10 (16's for daily, 15's for DR's) with a 5'' or 5.25'' backspace for the rear, and 16x8 5''bs for the fronts. Of course if I decide to go this route with the wheels, I will be doing the flares. Im really liking the look of that SC, screw the body lines, I think it looks great.
