Not sure the offset on the 949's will play nice with your B13. I have them with 225/45-15 tires on my Miata, and 15x7 RPF1's with 205/50-15's on my B13. One thing is for sure.... you have good taste in wheels.

I love both and it really depends on your suspension setup. If you have coilovers then I would say the 949 if not then RPF01. I read somewhere around here that 15x8 6UL don't clear some suspension components, but they sure look great.

True about suspension.I tried to fit 15x8 949 on a b13 with AGX and 5mm spacer and it was borderline rubbing the strut....I had to sell them....they will clear with coilovers,though

Back when 949 first released their wheels they offered a 15x8 with a more B13 friendly offset, but we're assuming you're talking about new ones.

so you are saying once you have coilover 15x8 rims would work all round?...... thinking of buy them

with coil overs you will have plenty of room.
