Some people have put 4x100 wheels on a Spridget. I think that there is a
danger of the lug studs bending to get them to fit.
 
Miata wheels in particular have a pretty high offset, so they may not
fit even if you get them over the lugs. If you want to try this, you're
better off with BMW or old Toyota wheels. However, that high offset
means you might be able to fashion an adapter from 4x4 to 4x100...

Has anyone tried, or is there anyone with a 1st generation Miata 
that could see if the 14 inch Miata wheels fit a spridget? 
>From what I've seen, they are 4x100 lug spacing, (slightly less than
4x4) 
and 14x5.5 or 6 inches wide. 
If the center hole is big enough, seems like a go.
