Wheels.

Hi guys. Looking for a resource to find 4x110 wheels. Would prefer something interesting or deep dish. But it seems I can't find anything out there. Anything will help thanks!

You're not going to find much in 4x110 unless you can find an alternate set of period rims or a new set of Konig Rewinds. If you want to open up your options you need to either put a different pattern hubs on (GSL-SE for example) or run adapter plates. There are threads on those two options.

Unknown model of Compomotives. They measured 4x110. 16x9 and 16x11, 0 offset. My widebody was 4x114.3, so I had to get adapters. Kinda ironic actually.





Here they are refinished, with some flush mount centers. Believed to be from some other Mazda racing car, as they were pretty much the only 4x110. They are super light too. <br/><br/><br/>I know where theres 3 more complete sets.

Don't forgot that Rota has several 4x110 wheels in FB fitment available. 15x7

Check out Rota Mesh OS for example. That's what I have and I like them. I am not a fan of the Konig Panasport looking wheels!

Of course I would prefer a sweet set of old school 4x110 wheels like SSRS or Enkei 92s but it was too difficult for me to find.

You can't buy rotas of their website so where can I buy them online?

Google around a bit. There are some ebay sellers and Amazon.

I got mine of Amazon that were being sold by a company in California. Great service.

For example there is an entire selection of 4x110 Rotas on ebay by a good seller. All new of course.

I have a set of Ansen Sprint aluminum 13" 110mm wheels with slicks. These will fit RX2, RX3, RX4, and first gen RX-7. The also include the lug bolts. They are longer then the stock bolts. The slicks are not in the best of shape and I would not run them. The back wheels are 8" and the front are 6". The wheels need to be cleaned but do not have an rash or dents. They will polish up nice.

Diamond Racing Wheels.
You can get some good looking, brand new wheels, made to your specs (size/offset), for about $400-500.

I've been looking into getting some racing wheels made.
You can still get 13x7 and 15x7 in a few different brands. Panasport, rota and such.

But with 15x8s Here is what I have found.

You can get away with most anything on the street. but racing wheels are put to the test. So using old wheels is no really safe.

Cost range is from 75.00 to 650.00

Diamond has both steel and aluminum. 75 fro steelies and 126 for alum. (any off set you want.
The bad- Steel weight and the alumi have cracked centers. both are stamped 2peice welded centers.
Good- Can't beat the price.

Next is Spinwerks. great 2 pice welded center stamped wheel.
The bad Maybe NLA. last year they still had a web site. Now not even the phone number works.
they were in the 200.00 area.

Kisser 3 pice race wheel. Very lite! At one time they were very affordable. Now days your looking 450.00 or more.
Tne bad. Hit a curb hard and you bent a wheel. Off sets only in whole inches.
The good. Very lite great customer service. Have the same bolt pattern as welds

Jongbold Great, strong and lite wheel. This is a true top line racing wheel.
The Bad. cost 650.00
The good. everything else.

I'm talking to a company that builds racing wheels. Still working on prices. But they told me any where from 450 for a true 3 piece race wheel or a 2 piece forged center welded 300. any offset.

I will try and get a group buy if anyone is interested. pm me
