Find the right wheel for your car
I has been searching around in this forum and other places looking for the right wheel for my Black Amethyst Pearl colored Jazz.
At TireRack i found a lot off brands that I had not heard of, but still could not deside out of the pictures from that site.
Started to search for wheel sites around at the web with google and have found these intresting so far.
Wheel manufactors
wheel resellers
Tire size calculator
Miata.net Tire Size calculator. Find which tire you need to fit your car with your wheel size.
Other links will be added in this tread later when I find more.
Only manufactures that have wheels that fit our beloved Fit/Jazz will be listed here. Please add one in this thread if you have a link that is not mentioned above. Make a note if the site has a "wheel simulator" where you can see the wheels on your car.
(PS! Hope this list is not made anywhere else here in this forum allready, if so pleace ignore this thread.)

Hagl Norge!
Great post. I have been searching all week looking for the same information. a place I found was
Wheel Max WheelMax.com
Not sure if those are any good or what, but some look nice and have good prices.
I think you meant this, but you should edit all the links back into your top post, this could be a GREAT thread/tool to search for wheels.

I work for the largest wheel/tire retailer in the country but it goes against sponsor etiquette to post this stuff. Tire Rack does a lot to help on the internet and to post other vendors after they give you deals etc. just isn't right. Not sure if it's Jim on this site or not but they always give good advice for you.

I am confused, are you saying that we can't talk about the various wheel manufacturers and distributors because Tire Rack is a sponsor here?
That would be absurd if we could talk about everything else, but wheels. Tire Rack has their own dealer forum and we have this forum to talk about wheels here. They also don't carry every wheel available for the fit. If what they offer is what people want and they have good service, then people will buy from them. The list up there is mostly manufacturers, which Tire Rack is not, so I see no harm in that.
If you just meant that YOU can't comment because of who you work for, then... I'm sorry. I can understand why you couldn't do that. ...and ignore most of what I said in the other paragraph. hahaha.

I was going to recommend this be a sticky. I mean, after I looked at tire rack, I began looking everywhere else possible to find a wheel I liked. This thread just makes it a little easier. Sure TireRack offers more services and will definitely increase their business because of that, but I really doubt this thread will affect that in any way.
