If you are looking for 16X6.5's, I don't know of anything in the
aftermarket. Everything I've found starts at 16X7. That's certainly true
for Volks. There are probably ways to do it with a modular wheel, but
Bogart can't do that offset in such a narrow wheel. They'd need a
negative-width outer rim half, which they don't seem to have available
(they've been on order from Huck and Chuck for several years now).
Miatas, Minis, and WRXs are all in the same boat on these. I think Mark
Chiles got Panasport to make him some wheels, but I'm not sure it actually
saved him any weight over the stockers. If you want to order 100 sets, I
can hook you up with the Volk people - they'll make anything if you buy in
that quantity.
