As has been stated, new rims cost a $%&load. Why is it then, as new secondhand wheels for later model MX5s, (NC and ND) when they come up for sale, go for a song.
Can't work it all out.

Re: Mazda Spare parts prices!!
I'd always wanted a set of Momo star HDT wheels for my VL when a young lad. Hard to find back then and expensive (I only found one beat up set at a silly high price). Priceless (literally) nowadays - there r none for sale.

Both are overpriced, like the wombats selling 1999 NB1 models for over 10-15k!

If they're in Sydney they may be from my old car, I believe the new owner has changed them out...

Re: Mazda Spare parts prices!!
You'd have to pay me $850 to consider running SE wheels.
