I have been looking around for 18 inch wheels for my NC.. late model Subaru Sti's are 5x114.5 and are about the right width.. the offset is 55 which i assume is about right as they are wider than stock..I don't imagine they will hit the suspension..they also usually come with pretty good tyres from japan..Any one tell me if they with fit before i buy a set...thanks.. patrick

Patrick, fitment is usually 18X8X50 or 18X9X45.
I think you'll struggle to get 8.5 X 55 clear on the inside...without spacers

Not STI or 18" but have you seen these? http://mx5cartalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=71628
Staggered, would fit but painted blue.
