1983 GSL wheels

I have searched and searched. And I'm guessing this topic is covered. Some kind soul please point me in the right direction.
Time for tires on my sons 83 GSL, stock suspension. Now is the time to play with wheels.....without taking out a second mortgage. I'm not seeing many options on the stock 4 bolt 110 size. Would love to go to 14, 15 maybe 16" wheels. Point me to some suppliers please. Or...somebody explain to me the options on 5 lug adapters and the pros/cons involved.
I keep thinking this HAS to be a common thought, but I just can't find the answers I need.
Thanks in advance
Scott

www.goodwinracing.com has Konig Rewinds in 15x7 for about $115/wheel. Rota sells the RB which is pretty much the same design for about the same price in 15x7 and 15x8. You can get them from www.18racing.com. These wheels are similar in design to the Panasports, but cheaper. They look great and really fit the look of the car. Otherwise check the classifieds here. The option for going 5 lug is getting the big brake conversion kit from RE-Speed, and the Moser axles they sell drilled in 5x114.3. This is of course considerably more expensive than just the wheels, but gives you more options along the way.

Thanks guys.
I keep coming around to the Rewinds as they are readily available. But, they don't really get my son too excited (Me either.). I haven't given up yet. I'll update if I find anything else.

Per return email....
Hello,

Thank you for the inquiry. For the 4x110mm on the RX7, the only wheel I
can even suggest would be the Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 in black finish
in 15x7 size. They have to be custom drilled, it takes about a week before
we can get ready to ship. Total price would be $875.00 for 4 wheels with
caps, lugs and shipping to 48 states. Please let me know what you think, I
attached a pic.
Thanks,
Josh
