Every Penney you have and all your (Girlfriends) Chris!
Alot cooler on the Coast today... Beats 97 in Portland yesterday!!!

84-85 w/ 12A Motor= 4x110 Pattern Stock & Aftermarket Rim.
Not a whole lot of choices left anymore.
So what is your solution around this delema unless you spend some serious $$$ on changing to 4x114 setup?
Do a search under (Wheels) and you will find some great info on what Rims and Suspension upgrades works and what does not for what your trying to accomplish.

The "Search Button" will unlock all the mysteries of the Rx7club....

If bolt pattern isn't an issue then you will be limited by size and offset. There are many threads on this topic, especially in the Archive section.

Good luck, and welcome.

to get around the pattern dilemma im merely going to pull off my discs and rotate them then drill a new pattern into them. if i did it it wouldf only cost me the price of the new lugs. if i have rotary rockets of washington do it then itll cost 200.
