Alternative GSL-SE rims

As an Auto crosser, and in college, I'm trying to find the best/cheapest rim solution for the GSL-SE. So far I found out about this:

mkII supra, cressida, or celica GTS (pre 86) rims have the right hub bore, use stock studs, but are offset a little too aggressivly (+5mm, 4x114.3mm pattern with crazy lugnuts means it bolts right up the holes are so damn big).
14x7, 85 L-type supra got 15x7 (very rare)

incidentally the stock supra 225/60r14 fits onto the front and rear, but makes the car look like a monster truck. the only clearence issues are with the fenders.

From here:
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ra+celica+rims

Now they aren't quite as easy to find anymore, so I asked my buddy to let me try his 97 Sentra rims, but he's slacking off at the moment.

Feel free to add to this list, I'm going to try to find something that works. Please only post if you have something to confirm.

Edit already, I found a good place to confirm the Nissan family, and now its a matter of the right offset.

if you can find the rims off of a mitsubishi lancer oz rally. the wheels fit perfect, and look awesome. they felt pretty light to me, compared to the stock ones. they do not rub on anything, except that i had a few times where they hit on the front fenders when turning hard on rough roads. and my car is lowered with racing beat springs. rolling the fenders would cure this completely

sadly, i sold them before i got any pics.

These are Mazda 323GTX wheels... same bolt circle, offset, width and diameter as the stock GSL-SE wheels.
