yes, any 4X110 mazda wheel will work. I have a set of panasports on my parts car that I'd like to sell, but the shipping would be cost prohibitive, as they need some work (curbage on all of them with a slight bend on one) They can be fixed though.

Well "technically" the early Savanna GT came with the steel rims and chrome beauty rings, but the Waffles are the Official alloy of the JDM cars too... set on ebay right now for $125
Love to see some pics of your Savanna!!!!!

Hey fc-
lack of body moldings (unless pulled?), 2-spoke st wheel, and lack of a "GT" badge at the back suggest your Savanna may actually be a Super Custom, not a GT. But then I note the remote mount under the dash for the mirrors (tho no actual switches) - are the mirrors electric or manual? Only the "Limited" JDM model (top of the line, above GT) had electric...
thanks for pics. Very interesting SA!!

wow thanks for the info. manual mirrors, no badging at all on it. what do you mean by super custom? do u mean it's been modded or there way a model like that? thanks

ok after some quick searching https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=89638&page=2 i found thats its probably not a gt because i dont have leather interior, might be a limited because it red and has funky plaid seats, could be custom or super custom, not enough info yet. thanks for all the help
