They would be fine. actually miata rims fit quite nicely. The 205/45/16 tire seems a little small but I could be wrong on that. I think 16's are the best size for the MX IMO. I would buy them

I agree, especially with the RS's with the itty bitty rear drums.

205/45R16 would be perfect actually, only 1% difference in speedo, assuming you're using the stock RS tire size of 185/65R14.

2.8% slower, 205/50R16 would be the size to go for GS

I had 16's with 225/45/16 no rubbing and even closer to stock size. I little more money though as it's an odd size tire
