Miata has two sets:

Konig Helium in semi-gloss bronze, 15x6.5, with 205/50/R15 Dunlop Z2 Star Specs that’re near-done; autocross use only at this point. Bought the tires used a year ago from a local Miata autocrosser who used them for half a season and one track day before he broken his motor.

Konig Helium in semi-gloss black, 15x6.5, with 195/55/R15 BFG Sport Comp 2. I went with a 55 profile over the stock 50 profile in order to gain some minor cushion for daily driving and to make my speedo/odo less inaccurate (it’s now only 2.5 mph optimistic).

Firestone Affinity 205/55R16 on the Mazda5, stock wheels

Semi-interesting note - back in the ‘80s, most high-performance cars (M1, 911 and other similar vehicles) came equipped with 225/50R16s in the back and 205/55R16s up front. In 30+ years, what was once a tire size reserved for the most expensive vehicles is now the higher-profile, lower-performance choice of the two sizes offered on a cheap minivan. (Do I get any bonus points for knowing this obscure fact?)

I instead went to a junk yard and got some 14 inch wheels from an e30 (similar looking) for $35 and some off brand cheapo tires for another $80 set of 4.

I think I still have the wheels at my parent’s garage possibly. One wasn’t very straight but all in good cosmetic shape

Actually, the rear left tire on the XJ is a Yokohama AT of some kind. It’s &0 miles away now so I can’t verify. Possibly an Adventurer? It used to be the spare on the MJ, but I swapped them because I was sick of having to inflate the XJ’s tire every time I wanted to move it.

Classic value right there on the Falken Ziex. I dig them so much.
