I've been wanting to get custom wheels for my 85 RX7 project but I can't seem to find a site w/any kind of selection(actually no selection)for my 7. I would appreciate some direction.

Thanks

im goin to sound like an ******* here but some one has got to say it. get off your computer and go to a shop that sells wheels and ask them, there are amilion stores out there who can help you out. the internet isnt the only place. geezious ****** a ricky between the bullshit con artists on ebay and people who know only shop online its no wonder local shops are goin out of buisness or charging an arm and a leg . **** man get some freash air and look around a bit you will find them.



but to anwser your question 15x7 bbs rims look great on fb body rx7s

wow dude, harsh. I did that "go look at a local dealer" five seperate times in fact and guess what? no rims, and three weekends of wasted gas and time. Oh and those custom rims i could have made? $500 a rim. ouch....

Yea, way too harsh man.



I do see the point though as those stores have access to catalogues and the like where they can order rims they may not have in stock that the few decent commercial websites won't order just for you. Too many middle men for them to order for you and then ship them to you. You're stuck to their selection. If it's a good tuner shop though they will have loads of different sources for wheels and will be able to order some factory direct from a manufacturer if they have them. That or you can buy wheels and have them filled and re-drilled. That would cost an arm and a leg though too..



Now are you looking for 4x110 or 4x114.3? If it's the later then you're in luck. That's not hard to find. If it's the non GSLSE models you're looking at the 4x110 which will require either adapters or searching high and low for the few wheels that fit that pattern.



Blackdragon automotive has knock off Panasport 8spokes for 4x110.

check www.rhdjapan.com they have a few sets that fit.



you should do a search for "drift tuning companies" the 4x110 pattern rims can be found quite often on drift sites because people start out sometime using old ae86 or rx7 for drifting and ae86 has the same pattern i think.



good luck with your search.

I didn't come here to make enemies bro but you went too far! You may live in an urban setting or a town where auto accessories are plentiful...I do not...I've raced motocross for over 16 years so that's where I spend my time and that's why I live 20 miles out of town on 5acres in the 360,000 acre national forest, so I can ride/practice! It must be easy for you to go to town w/your polo sweater tied around your ***, smoking your ******* cigarette through your fancy cigarette extender sos not to burn yourself so you can walk around all the tire/custom shops in town, this is stupid you pole-smoker, you said it yourself, just look at what you wrote, you said "the local shops are charging an arm and a leg" YEAH SO THAT's WHERE I'LL GO, YEAH TO A LOCAL OVERCHARGING WHEEL SHOP...You know what this is the only reason I hate the internet because you can't **** someone up when they bust off at the mouth, I'm a newbie here but that doesn't mean you can talk to me like I'm a piece of ****, you obviously have some issues and you have alot of growing up to do little boy.

Oh lets see if ANYONE thinks this is STUPID, check it out; A person goes on the internet(the WORLD wide web)looking for some wheels for his RX7 and joins a forum relating to RX7's so he can ask some non-bias people where to look for some good custom wheels, all while thinking that if you ask some peeps w/experience it might save him time and money...

But now I see what I should've done...I should've got in my truck, drove 50 miles to Orlando and looked around, maybe talk to the SALESMAN and see if they might convince me to pay too much. It's kind of funny how a dude sitting on HIS *** on the internet finds the ***** to tell me to get off MY ***, get OFF the internet and look around a little...what a hypocrite...I just need some ******* wheels *******!

Bro you're a dick! No seriously bro you are a dick, Seriously! you need to get back on your meds, you're starting to slip back to being a narrow minded dumbass. Hey, and get a clue the industrial age is over! It's all internet now BIOTCH!

If someone knows where they may be a selection of wheels for my application that I may look at and then possibly purchase could you find it in you heart to direct me, possibly give me a link, pretty, pretty please?

There's a thread called "can't find rims" thats like, 6 threads down the first gen page. Just look. All questions will be answered. coulda looked a little first... But whateves.



And FC3sboy1... You obviously have never owned a first gen non-SE car. Rims are about as hard to find locally as head gaskets for my 12A. 4x110 is not going to be mentioned in any tuner shops and any stupid honda boy working the counter isn't going to know where to find anything for you...

Yeah I got the measly GS model w/ drums. I guess that's the 4x110. I found a gsl rear end w/disks but haven't inquired on compatability to the gs...compatability of drive shaft, sway bars, struts, mounts, ect... I'm scared to ask about that now, I might be directed to my local auto mechanics shop to ask some of the paid help for advice.
