Cheap wheels for a 7

Ok guys. I was wondering if anyone knows of some car that you can find in the junkyard that uses the same weird bold pattern (4 x 110) as our little beasts. Our original rims are pretty skinny, and I'm too broke to buy supernice mag wheels. So it looks like the junkyard is the place for me.
Any ideas?

diamond racing makes steel wheels for any bolt pattern, any diameter, any offset, for cheep. Do a google search, get their phone number, call em up.

Well, the only one i know uses the same pattern is the pre 82 626 (i think you guys call them capellas) besides the older RX models.

Yeah, sorry for not clarifying. The 89 240sx-se 15 in. rims bolt directly up to the '84-'85 RX-7 GSL-SE.
