N E One suggest nice rims?

I'm looking out for some 14" x 6/or7 five spoke rims that look sweet and dont cost more than my car. DOnt have to be 5 spoke but they are cool, oh and they have to be 4 by 4.5 bolt pattern? for a 84 GSL-SE? Thanks guys.

It would be much easier to fit that in a 15" size. Are you crossing in stock class or something, then you need to be aware of the width and offset in relation to the O.E. wheels as well.

For a lightweight inexpenzive wheel, I would suggest the Rota Subzero or the Rota Cirucit8. I carry the Rota line and are local to me. Check it out at rotawheels.com, hopefully there are pictures up on there.

THanks, RIshie

These would run like $100 or so per wheel.

wheels

Also, are stock wheels pure aluminum - if so they can be acid dipped to get rid of oxidization, if not, crap. I'm looking for 14"s only because I have a really good set of tires and don't want to blow money, I can spend it on other mods. anyone know of a cheap used super (supra) style spoiler anywhere or should I look in a wrecker yard?

Hey are the Rota rims cheaper than the Konigs or more expensive? They are the same exact rims as the "konig" subzero. Do you have them in a different offset? Thanks.

they are both copies of the racing hart cp-035. there is another copy by dazz motorsports.....the rh evolution cp35. all the copies are about the same cost and weight as each other.

why not just check thepartstrader.com for some stock wheels in good condition if you want to stay with the stock size or just want cheap wheels.
