They were used on a 2006 MX-5. I currently have 205/45-17 tires and wheels with an offset of + 55 mm.Does anyone know of a reason as to why these wheels /tires would not work on my 2009 MX-5 GT? Any issues with offsets? What is a fair price to pay for them? They are asking $ 600? thanks Harold 2009 MX-5 Miata GT, PRHT, 6 spd. Auto, Metropolitan Grey Mica/ Havana Brown Leather .

No change to the spedometer / odometer.

I guess my question should have been if anything has changed in the 2009 model year regarding wheel fitment( rotors,brakes,suspension, offsets) that would prevent these wheels that came off a 2006 model year being able to be used on my car.
