    For anyone who hasn't seen his Micra, take a look.. it's awesome!

    Dish comes with the lower offset wheels.

    From higher to lower offset, look for wheels to fit:
    E30 BMW (+24 stock)
    E21 BMW (+18ish stock)
    Gemini's (-ve offsets easily available)

    BMW wheels are 57mm centerbore though, so you'll have to look for aftermarket wheels or get them bored out.

    Good luck, took me about 4 months to find the right wheels to fit my guards (15x6.5 ET13; 4x100 (factory option BBS for E21). But the 14x6 versions of the same wheel pop up fairly often on ebay for pretty cheap. Not heaps of dish though, as I was looking only for sizing.

    59mm is a pretty big centerbore, so you'd probably have not much luck with factory wheels.

    xsoarerx wheels are 14x7.5 or 14x8 with around +10 offset.

    i have a micra as well, 14x7 is a good size, but it has to be anywhere around the +20 to +30 offset to fit properly.
    my g/f has sportmaxx 501's in 15x8 +15 and they stuck outside the micra guards by like an inch and ive pumped and rolled the guards by 10-15mm.

    so my suggestion would be 14x7 +20 offset. 15's fill the guards nice, but are just that little bit too big, kinda like 16" on a ke/ae. its not bad but doesnt look as nice as it should..

    LOL... TO PUT THIS TO REST

    14x7.0 -8 & 14x8.5 -10

    YOU WILL NOT FIT THESE UNDER STOCK GUARDS, EVEN FLAIRED AS MUCH AS PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE~! CAMBER MUST BE ADDED

    the biggest ive seen is like 14x7 +20 on a normal micra

    hummm... i say get the rims you want and go from there... to pick get a rim even the stock one and a bunch of spacers, pack the rim out to where you want it to sit without the tyre on and work out what size/offset is needed.

    check this one. (below)

    How much camber do you get when you lower it, if any?

    The spacer idea sounds good. Cheers.

    Haha... what is the benefit of keeping these secrets to yourself? One more dodgy looking Micra on the road?
