Weirdly, I saw a new Jaguar iPace yesterday with the base-spec wheels equipped, and I actually preferred the look

The smallest I can fit on the miata are 16's, and that’s what I’m rocking. Down from factory 17's.

Yup, just look at that base-level POS:

To some degree, brakes can limit how small the wheels can be on a modern car. Especially those of the high-performance sort. I can’t run anything smaller that 18" up front on my car (with OEM brakes) and that means my sidewalls are going to stay pretty thin if I want to maintain overall diameter.

You know, it is nuts. Everyone says “low profile tires are required for performance!” Well, not all performance cars have low profile tires. (admittedly, these tire profiles are mandated, but you can’t tell me that your Hyundai with 1" high sideways can outperform this vehicle with the fat sidewalls).

Ford... doesn’t make the Demon....

Wow who pissed in your Fruit Loops this morning?

Edit: I’ll go a bit further. The only car on sale under $100k that has more horsepower is the Challenger Hellcat Redeye (797hp). And the (rather large) difference here is that the Challenger is in no way meant to take corners. The GT500 is meant to compare with the Camaro ZL1 1LE meaning the two of them will be out…

its too early for takes this dumb

This will have a better power to weight ratio than the demon. 

Psh...yeah. Only 760hp..? Might as well have bought a Prius!!11!1!!11!1!!

It is far too early to be this unimpressed with something that is quite exceptional, sir!
