Look what I got free yesterday
I got them from a friend who bought another FB to run at the track and he had these,
His FB runs 12s N/A bridgeported..They swap the motor into his newer car,and should be back on the track with juice and other goodies,his mostly using stock Mazda OEM drivetrain..
I got the wheels cause he didnt need them.
I dont know what brand just that they are stamped on the back MOLD 2 and were gold...
I like them but in about 1 month my suspension will be swaped to a GSL SE set up..I finally found a rear end yesterday.
$150. everything there with cables.

Those look familiar. Did the older Rx's use those wheels? I think the rx-3 did. Or they could be SA wheels. Maybe limited edition wheels. I'm really sure it's one of those, or not.

The front is higher cause no engine is in it right now.

One last pic..
With the front runners on..
When I swap to the GSL SE front set up..I might just drive on some weld wheels
15x4 in the front
15x7/ or 14x7 in the rear..

Isn't that the aluminum FC spare? I thought that only fit on the GSL-SE bolt pattern?
Those wheels look really good on your color combo...too bad you have to switch before you even get to roll with them...

Just a little trick alot of people do JUST for the track.
What do you think,ALL orange body,with polsihed Weld wheels..the wheels will be the ones with the holes.

Who cares...they were free,More room to run wider slicks if I wanted to keep them
What do you have for suspension under the car, looks low?
Custom POS suspension
I probally wont even know how these rims/tires ride,cause as soon as im done with my engine and paint,my GSL SE suspension will be done..

The spares are from the FC SE (86-87) model,its 4 lug and same bolt pattern as the GSL SE 4x114.3
I got 2 of them,and they do have these in 5 lug too,they are pretty light,andf alot of drag racers use them.

Did those wheels come for a 4*110 also? I have one with my car also, and it fits, I have it on right now, and I am pretty sure I have 4*110 due to the drum brakes in the rear. Not a bad looking wheel, too bad they are so narrow.

The wheels are NOT 4x110
They fit GSL SE wheels perfect or take some modding to fit on a 4x110 pattern
They are perfect fro the race track with some 165/15 tires on them
for front runners

I'll have to check mine out when I get home tonight. I know I have 4*110, and I also know I have a wheel just like that one attached to the front of my car as I type. I don't think the wheel has been modified at all, I put it on Saturday just to see what it would look like, and if it would fit. Huh? I still wish it were wider than 4" though.

I have to get rid of my car, the rear supports have completely rusted through. So now when I hit a bump or peel out, the driveshaft hits the bottom of the car.
But havent decided if Im gonna keep it for parts, or if im gonna part it out!
