pix...

aloud, or allowed? oh shit. I just whored.

Looks like BBS to me. I have a pic of mine up on the 'other' thread.

If I ever get the car finished, these are going on. Old school, 3 piece Epsilons, 15x8 ft, 15x10 rr. Stock wheel provided for comparision. The mesh centers will be powdercoated charcoal metallic.

Had to add power steering to the car just so I can turn them. :D

are you running fenderflares?

Now here's some real Wed's Autobahns in a 15 X 7 size wrapped in 205/50's upfront and 225/50s in the rear....:p:

NICEEE!

Pics in the sig, on the left MOMO Arrows 16x7.5 wrapped in 205-40 front and 225-40 rear Kuhmo 712

The right picture shows my BSA Racing 17x7 wrapped in 205-40-17 Yokohama Avid H4's all around.

The 16"s are 35mm offset and mildly rub stock height. The 17"s are 40mm offset and don't rub even with ST springs and Toyiko 5ways.

You might call them flares. :bigthumb: This why it's taking so long to get the car done, that and a total restoration of the body, roll cage, redoing the entire fuel system and a 1/2 bp.

Wow,sure are a lot of, "show your rims" threads starting up lately.If we could only get some, "show your breasts" (not man-boobs) threads going!!!

This is for sevenstock8. The real centerlines for a the RX-3 which will be rolling with a P-Port. The real old school rims.

Wheee, another show your rims thread! I just love showing off my car! Still dirty with 16`s. TSW Apex to be exact. I`m getting tired of them, i wonder if i can get a hold of some Watanabe RS8? (Saw them in the last thread about the same topic and fell in love) Of course i would have to remove the skirts, front and rear spoiler, but damn. Original SA`s looks soooo nice!

https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...hmentid=106602

dude your car looks sweet just the way it is. change the rims maybe, but great choice for body parts, don't change a thing

by the way, what's the offset on your wheels, and what size tires?

im hoping to fit 215/45/16, but i have to use adaptors that will be 1" all around. i think i may have to go with 205/40 instead, but the wheels i found already have tires i'd rather use up first.

nick

Thanks!

The tires are 205/45. Offset is 15. No scrubbing at all, car isnt lowered. The Watanabes are just a dream, not exactly easy to get a hold of in Europe..

those look like the centerlines i see on el-caminos all the time
lol

heres an old pic WHEN i had 18s and 19s. Believe it or not but the rears were 19x7s
I borrowed them from a friend of mine for a few months just see how they would look and ride. Ive never heard of the brand before but they were called Bryals. I didnt really like it. Id rather have 15s

http://memimage.cardomain.net/member...388_2_full.jpg

well, assuming my wheels are 40mm offset, and i will be running 1" adaptors, i could imagine the offset to be just about that, exactly 15mm of offset

if this is true, and your fitment works well without any rubbing, then i will be very happy...once difference being the tires are 215, not 205, but i can't see that making much of a difference. at least not the kind of difference that rolling the lips wouldn't fix.

now that that's settled, i can stop worrying. btw, sure looks like your car is lowered, but i guess its just the wheels filling the gap making it appear that way, then again, maybe your springs are sagging. you sure you're stock height?

nick

Well, the car is stiff (handles really well) and i dont think neither the dampers or the springs are sagging. It could be that you are tricked by the skirts and front beeing rather low to the ground. Anyways, im planning on a GLS-SE suspension swap. I do want that more common pattern, rear disc brakes and LSD.. I also have 4 complete sets of wheels in the 4*114,3 pattern. Another great advantage with the GLS-SE suspension, is that the offset is better, and you can fit a wider rim, without screwing up the camber angle.

As to wether 215`s will scrub, i think they will do just fine. I tried 225 on mine and it was fine. (but only marginally:)). If you are planning on rolling the fenders anyways, i dont see the problem.


BTW, watch out for a project thread on my car. I have just gotten a hold of a digital camera and the car is currently stripped for restoration inside and outside! (well outside, almost done inside) When done, it will look mucho better with new paint, redone interior, cleaned up engine bay and maybe some different wheels!

Hey OldSkoolRX-7, do you have an full car pics? love to get a better view on how those wheels look on a 1st gen. Thanks!
