Heres mines, Rims where not my original choice but got a great deal on them,, actually it was cheaper to buythese used w/ new tires then it was to get 14" new tires, But anyways they are 17" 205/40/17 with a plus 40 offset

Making a deal right now for some 17x7's with 42 offset, even if they don't fit the price is right so that I could sell them without a loss. Please chime in if you think there is something wrong with the wheel setup.
Thanks, Neil |
14'' limited wheels and 17'' 5 zigens and 15'' kosei'\s

All I have left are the seats. |
My personal preference tends to run old school. Either a mesh wheel, the 83 LE wheels or one of the many banana spoke styles. On a silver body the centers should be painted/powdercoated black, charcoal or silver with a polished lip, LE wheels should remain oem.
In the following link are the Epsilons on the widebody, which are being replaced with a wider set of SSRs that look almost identical. https://www.rx7club.com/build-threads-293/unvieling-12a-bp-widebody-462184/ |
I am also a fan of the black mesh with chrome lip, looks amazing on almost all cars. My setup is 17x10, 17x12 CCW classic 3 piece wheels. 5.5" backspacing in the rear, 4.5" backspacing up front.

17x7" with 42 offset didnt work for some reason but I didn't have the time to really see what the deal was, so I'll be looking for wheels with 38-40 offset. I'm sure it was hitting the caliper so I'm back on the hunt for some 16's or 17's with the lower offset.

+42 offset is way to high without spacers. You should look more towards the +20-30 range

Who was this? If it was Tallbozo, his was a mis-type, his are 15x7 +20 offset. With that high offset it causes clearence issues with that wide of a wheel with the struts. Plus, why would you want FWD wheels anyway? ;) Deep dish FTW
|
Just for selection I guess, not too many wheels come in 20-30mm offsets it seems or maybe I am not looking in the right places. Will probably go with the Maxxim Screeches (38mm offset), 15x7 with spacers if needed, they have the old school look I am going for the bigger wheels were kind of gaudy anyways.
