Okay Question??

Okay I know like many I too am frusterated with this weird bolt pattern on my first gen 4*110. Okay I know if I do a suspension swap from a gsl-se it will effectively solve that problem. Okay I have to cars one parts car and one rebuild. I'm rebuilding the 81 becaue it has every option offered at the time. And I have an 85 gs. My question is if I swap the gs suspension with my 81 it should take care of that bolt pattern problem. Because quite francly the panasport make me gag. I could probably go looking but I figure I'll get a faster response from you guys. Tell me what you think?

Thanks

The SE has many more wheel choices due to the more common bolt pattern.

The 79-85 Rx-7 have all the same bolt pattern, except for the 1984-85 GSL-SE 13b Rx-7.
So swapping in your 1984 GS, you will still use the same wheels as your 81.

A nice wheel is the 1983 Limited Edition 14" wheel that fits the Rx-7 non-SE cars.

Let me know I have a lead on a set.

perhaps you should do the SE conversion. the choices are superior. i am with rhinor61, the limited edition wheels look good!
