Hi Chris, Looks good on paper,

I'd be interested also, but more for the Morris that already uses 14" 
wheels standard. Some Miata wheels will probably not have a problem 
clearing any protrusions, i.e. '94-'97 seven spoke alloy & "hollow 
spoke". There are probably others too. Panansports are also available 
in 14" and 15" on 4 on 4.

Keep in mind too the wider track or the front wheels on disc brake 
cars. You might need a different spacer for the front.

You might also consider the concentric hub feature used on many of 
these wheels. I came across a web site that sells these adapters, but 
can't find the link now.
