Hey BadAssRX-7

Do you know off the top of your head the size and bolt pattern of those rims?

I beleive they are exactly the same size/bolt pattern as 79-85 12A stockers. They where a factory option from Mazda in the early 80's. Rotor wheels!

That's what I thought. I wonder if they ever made them for the 'SE...

Of course, I don't know what I'd do with a 3rd set of rims, but they'd look awsome, lol!

They were an option in europe. Never sold here. I think they are 4x100.

I have the Canadian 1983 RX7 sales brochure at home, and these wheels are pictured on the last page. They where a special order item... part of the "targa IMSA" package (rims, targa band, spoiler and airdam) but they could be ordered seperately. Pretty ugly if you ask me, but i'd use 'em anyways 'cause a rotor rim is just TOO cool.
