Eh.... just get a set of these. Steel X wheels designed by Mazda for fitment on the first gen RX-7. No need to check offset or other fitment issues.

Besides you never know the quality that will come from an aftermarket company.


EDIT: That is a HORRIBLE picture....

Those aren't the style I'm going for. They look cool, just not for me. 6" wide with a 2" backspace should work perfect.

I do like the look of steel racing wheels as well. The Diamond Racing wheels look awesome and come in different diameters and widths too. Good luck with the rim choice!

They're inexpensive to replace and really light for steel. So be careful on the street with them. No good through potholes

Thank you! They look good. Mind taking a shot down the side of the car? Wondering how they fit with the fender.
