What's the chances these rims will fit?

I have a feeling it is slim to none but I have a set of proline 950 15 inch rims sitting around that I got for my old Honda. I am wondering if there is a way these would fit on the rx7 to replace the stock rims? I highly doubt it because everyone is saying the bolt pattern on these are weird, but they have never even been on a car so it is kind of a waste.

honda 4 lugs are 4x110 or 4x114. Your 7 (unless its a gsl-se) is 4x110 if you have a gsl-se though, the pattern is 4x114.3 i believe

We don't have enough info about the wheels; bolt pattern size, backspace or offset, width.

Give the info and someone would be able to answer intelligently.

Here is all the information I have which is on the box of the rims.
Size: 15x6.5
PCD 4x100/4x114.3

Then it has the finish and MFG Part on the box.

4x114.3 will fit GSL-SE only and 4 lug 2nd gen. RX7s.

All other first gen. RX7s are 4x110.......unless someone did a swap.

The only way to make your rims work on a non GSL-SE is with wheel adapters.
Here is a set >>> https://www.rx7club.com/wheels-tires-106/4x110-4x100-wheel-adapters-955080/


PS..It really helps people to help you if we know what year and model car you have, makes things faster.

Yours is 4x110. It's very hard to find wheels for the 12a cars, unfortunately. A lot of people swap over SE hubs for the more common pattern but it's a lot of work.
