i recently bought a set of those rotor shaped rims, and i can't get them to fit my 79 sa22c. i did notive that the bolt pattern on the rims is the same as the se's (4x114.3), not the same 110 as on the rest of the mazdas... what i was wondering is, since the rotor rims are 13", will they be able to clear an se front end if i decide to upgrade? thanks for your help

 

That's wierd because the ones I've seen are 4x110

 

me too they should be 4x110 maybe they're rip-offs

 

they came on an australian and southafrican trim levels called the "special edition", according to my literature which dates Sept. 81, from the magagine "car south africa" it was the "foriegn" gsl trim level. the car had a rubber type spoiler as well as seats that resembled the 79 limited edition sold here, in america. the wheels are 5,5J and are shun with 185/70HR 13 size tires. i believe the rims could be had on U.K. spec cars as well. very desired rims!!!

 

mazdaverx713b : I couldnt have said it better myself.

I have a set on my car ,which i bought it with.

Makes it a bit more special ,seeing that the others here have the normal Cross shape

 

awesome rims!!! i would love to own a set. they truely are unique!!!

How'd ya do?



Nice rims... Would be nice to have, but I would be scared to run with them on the car, since I wouldnt have any spares......

 

Well, i did a 17.2 sec

I must ad thast this was my shakedown run.

conditions : 100 degrees
Headwind of 20mph
Elevation :5800 feet above sea level
Incline of 12 degrees

Came 2nd in my class...

Its not brilliant,but it was my first!

ag well!If it gets damaged,then i`ll just have them repaired

 

do you guys have to convert to using studs rather than lug bolts? maybe i had a clearance problem
and didn't notice

 

Jimmy , i`am using the normal mushroom headed bolts to secure the wheels with.

I havent seen a Fb here with studs.
Where doesnt the rim clear ?Maybe i can help?
