I saw that video a long time ago, and wondered the same thing about the wheels. They look sweet. So does the car.

when I was a kid in Jersey we used to ship rims to Puerto Rico to make them into deep dish.

Hope that points you in a good direction, maby somebody here is from PR and can shop around for you. Somebody from NYC will definitely be able to help

Ironicly we would send the 1st gen rx7 rims to put on our corollas. Apparently they weren't from an 84 cause I cant find ANYTHING for my car, not that I'm bitter about that.........

Iv'e always wanted to widen a set of stockers off my 85 GS.

TALK TO YOUR LOCAL RIM SHOP SEE WHAT THEY SAY.
