I'm thinking bout buying these wheels

Well I have 2 100's, and I'll get 130 at about 1:30 today.

I have enough cans of this nice paint I was gonna use on my old FC which was a similar red to my fb, I could paint the rims. (It's blackish paint)



The guy said he'd put two on a 1st gen for me and take pics of it (Iono how they look) so thats cool, they're local. I need new tires on my stockers, I'd rather buy new tires for other rims in amonth, these need tires too but its about the same as my current tires.

for 300, whats your guy's opinion (if the rims are all in good shape) I currently have the + wheels, I never really liked the look and these look much wider and arnt these the popular Enki wheels i heard bout? I'm pretty sure Ive seen these on fbs (goes and looks haha)

They look like either Panasports or Minilites. Well worth 300 clams, IMO.

I'll try to score them after I see the pics, in another posting they had these other rims that were beautiful but for like 700 dollars, they had a pic of them on a fb thats probably theirs,


I'll post the pics of these on a 1st gen when the guy sends them, that'll be cool.

I had a set of Panasports on my Miata for years and got nothing but compliments on them.

I've always loved that style of wheel, and they look great on a 1st gen RX-7.
