you'll need the whole 2k to get your turbo up and running. I have 15x7 Enkei mesh rims, with a black center and a polished lip. I'll search for a thread with my pictures in it

I have Keystone rims rapped with Pirelli tires. I think the rims look nice but I want bigger ones, they also need center caps. The tires are awesome they give my 7 great handling and they smoke like no other.

if you have GSL-SE bolt pattern i have these wheels for sale. i have 2 sets and i want to get rid of one of them. it's still new

Specs are:
15x8
dual bolt pattern 4x100 & 4x114.3
0 offset
silver face w/ polish deep 3.5" lips



and this is how they look like on a Miata for example.





$480 picked up, but willing to ship on buyer's expense

Here are the ROH Snypers. 15X7. By the way, you are going to need alot more then 2K to turbo an rx-7 correctly.

13x7 Revolutions. I love the old-school look of a nice 4 spoke.

I love my lightweight Advans,but youll have to blow your whole wad and a little more for widebody spec versions......God, I love credit!!

The more common 17X7 sizes should be more affordable.....and it goes without saying youll need SE lugs and brakes to fit/fill them out.
TII/aftermarket brakes are even better.
