Hey guys. Just got some new aluminum wheels. I have an S so I had steel wheels and I love the look of these much better. Now I just need to raise the rearend up about an inch and get some raised letter tires and she'll look totally badass. Enjoy!

Raised white letters? What? Your kidding, right? Raise the rear? You mean lower the front. Right?

Yes raised white letter tires, and yeah raise the rear, the front is low enough because my suspension is worn and sits lower than stock

Rear end height is fine, leave it alone, it's not a V8 or muscle car. For optimum handling, the rear wheel lip should be approximately 10mm lower than the front.

Those are the stock aluminum wheels that came on 81-85 RX-7's. Nice find!!!

Yea bro dont raise the rear. Leave the muscle car look for the Ford and Chevy's. Forget the raised letter tires too! Next you'll be putting one of those annoying "GIT R DONE" stickers on the glass! ITS AN RX7 Bro! Looks go as is.

Hey I know they're stock aluminum wheels but mine were the steel one's and I like the aluminum wheels better. I'm not raising the rearend too high, just enough to give a more aggressive stance and the raised letter tires look very good with the aluminum wheels

...if finding stock aluminum wheels for an fb is a find then I guess I'm going to sell my two sets...no offense to the guy as they are okay wheels but those wheels are as common as anything...
