Smile New to the RX7 world

I just swaped my old heap ford and my runabout boat for a MINT condition RX7. 12th month 1983 5 speed. Its awesome. I think it only has 13" wheels, how big can this car take - 15's, 16's and how wide before they start hanging out the side, just seems the tyres are pretty small? Also, any info or site suggestions would be great.

Welcome to the wonderful world of sevens!

First, use the search function for tires & wheels. You'll find you are limited on your options, not much will fit the models with 13" wheels. The upper models (GSL-SE) have the 13B engine and bigger wheels that more aftermarket rims will fit.
Good Luck!

Hey Bayce,

Welcome to a great forum. If you're in Oz, you might want to check out www.ausrotary.com too. Where are you in Australia?

Cheers,

Saru

as your post count goes up, it'll change from Exhaust Leak to a few other things. After 1000 posts you can change it to whatever you want.
