So who rides around on 4.5" X 17" Wheels for daily. I am ordering Grey Race Stars. In the old Fox I put 100K on skinnies. I just don't see many now days.

The car is awful heavy for that small of a tire, but if thats what you want.

The next option would be a 17 X 7, What tire goes on that?

Uhh so why exactly do you want to put miata tires on your 3800 lb 460hp car?

17x7 is gonna be in the 215 tire size range

I drag race only, no high seed turns and I love the look

I ran 15x3.5’s back in my LS1 days. Never had issues but they reminded me really quickly that they were on there if I tried sharp curves at speed.

When I read the title my mind thought "This guy's putting on 4 skinny tires trying to get max mpg!"

No lol, the fronts. Just trying to get the most out of this thing. On kill 24/7 . They are lighter by a miles, less rolling resistance and look awesome. Only concern was what one of you said 3800lbs on a skinny for erry day. My old ride was 2640. Thats big and id hate to have self inflicted issues but I really want the look

Find a tire that fits the rim with the proper load rating and it will work. Just don't try to corner very fast.
