Probably for drifting.

From what ive seen, its hard to get more steering angle out of the miata because it the wheelbase is so short. You can get more power but it just gets you more speed drifting than steering angle.

There are plenty of people that went to a longer car like a 240 or to a 350 Z G35 coupe to do drifting from a miata so that they can get those style points because of the steering angle.

You can get spacers or custom tie rods/ends. That's pretty much it.
