my right rear tire is bent from the accident that happened on friday night. now i have to get a new one. Does anyone have a rim for the rx7 1988 gxl original rims 205/60/15? and how much for the one in good shape? talk to me tonight when i get home from hot tub for my back and neck. or call me anytime soon 425-233-1383.

Your post is unclear..



Are you looking for a 205/60/15 tire, or for a wheel?

Well...



I figured there were two ways to say it, and I chose the least embarrassing way.

If it's just bent out of round, it's an easy fix. Stock gxl wheels are pretty soft, You can pound them back into shape with a dead blow mallet pretty easily.
