Just got a set of 4x110 16x7 Panasports, if I didn't get them, I would be all over those.

p.s. if you don't sell them in a month I will buy the 4x110 set.

Damn. They look like my old BBS wheels on my GSL. However I only paid $40 a piece for mine.

4x110. Should be stamped on the backside of the rim.

Oh yeah, BBS made rims for the 1st gen's. These cars were fairly popular, remember .

The guy I purchased them from found them on a junkyard 7. Idiot tried to 'make' them fit on a VW GTi. He routed one of the holes out, so I had to get that repaired. Still worth the price, though..

I've got a set of SSR Meshies, not formula mesh, i think they're EX-C Mesh. I [believe] they were made in 1986.

15x6.5 +5 4x114.3

Might look good on a GSL-SE, dunno what the size and offset are of the factory wheels

$700 +shipping. xerography11@yahoo.com

I thought SSR EX-C's were the fins if my memory serves me right. Those were the **** back in the day along with Hayashis, Libras, Ronal, Weds and Epsilons.

So many awesome wheels out there, too bad I'm poor.

But for you 12A guys, check out the wheels in my sig (click the link) they are 4x108 but you can make them fit with a little effort.

Don't forget all the RX-2s, RX-3s, and RX-4s that used 4x110. As well as almost every other RWD Mazda up to the early 80's.

The trucks and the RX-5 are the only exceptions I can think of.

If you're talking about 'making them fit' the same way the guy I bought mine from tried to do on his GTi, that is some bad mojo right there...

IMO- adapt the hubs to accept a different bolt pattern safely or get rims to fit the car. Don't screw around with reaming the wheel stud holes out.

SSR made a special run in the mesh centers, however, I just sold them to a guy in Hawaii, sorry.

But yeah, they had a version of the EX-C's that were a mesh,

and I agree, don't EVER ream or modify a wheel to fit, EVER.

That's like guys asking if you can take your hubs and get them re-drilled for a different lug-pattern, being a machinist, I know I'd never redrill hubs. It's a disaster just waiting to happen.

well, that means these wheels go to the junkyard. I dont want to do it, but I have been trying for over a month to get rid of these and no one wants them.

And no, someone on Team FC3S told me you dont need to redrill anything, you can put them on if you convert to regualar wheel studs. I honestly dont know a lot about wheels.
