> I’d rather rock the Miata - it’s different. You think it would be cheaper to get an S2K than modify the rear wheelwells? I’d try to get some taller tires under it. It’d prolly help if it was not a DD (I can’t remember if it is or not). A litte stiffer set of spring may help, too. I’m not saying to “lift” it much, but maybe enough to make you more comfortable with it. It will probably effect handling a little, but sometimes you have to sacrifice something.

Well, it doesn’t have to be a DD at this point, but I have no interest in owning a car I can’t take anywhere.

I hate to lift the thing, and really, the 3/4" I’ll get from bigger tires just isn’t going to cut it. Modding the wheel wells isn’t worth it to me. I’m not interested in hacking the body up to fit wheels. Plus, I’d still be too low in the front without custom fenders.
