lookin to get some gxl wheels to tide me over for a little while and ill be runnin tein s-tech springs just wondering what itd look like

 

RB springs left, GF210 center, stock right.

 

man i wish they made the saw blades in 17s i love em!

 

They hardly made anything in a 17" in 1986. I was just flipping through the November 1985 "Road and Track" magazine with all the details on the "new" 1986 RX-7. It's interesting to see the ads for aftermarket wheels and tires in the back and seeing how rare even a 16" was back then. You could buy brand new aftermarket BBS wheels in the 13 x 6" size for your BMW 320i or your Audi 4000 for about $100 each...

I agree the saw blades are decent looking as S4 OEM wheels go. I prefer the machined ones that became available in '88 to the earlier painted versions myself.

 

which ones are the machined ones?

 

The shiny ones bro

 

 

i mis read the post originally haha ... those look badass 0

 

^^^wheels are on backwards^^^

here's my gxl with the polished rims, but they are partially painted black. i realize that the car is not dropped at all, but i figured it kind of relevant because they are polished. i got GC on order, so I can post up a lowered pic when i get the time to install them

 

those do look good though ..theyre gonna look awesome when u get the suspension on

 

they'll do until i can afford what the wheels i like/want

 

yeah i got the ugly gtu wheels on currently and i hate em i painted em black so i didnt have to look at them in such disgust lol

 

too bad you're not closer, i got a second set of polished gxl rims sitting outside that i would part with for cheap.

 

where u at !

 

oregon

 

You do realize that in '88, the GTU and GXL had the exact same wheels, don't you? It says under your name you have an '88, so your car would have come with a set of the machined saw blades from the factory.

 

GF210's

 

i wish i had the sawblades from the factory...i have the 89+ gtu wheels tho

 

I have a mismatched set that I use for my snow tires. 2 machined, 2 cast. Meh.

 

lol, just put the matching ones on the same side of the car. no one will notice without close inspection

 

Don't tell me those are all yours meximan. That picture looks trippy Haha

 

^ Are you referring to me as meximan because we both live in the same city? meximan didn't even post in this thread

 

the blades are doppppee. if i had tires on mine i'd rock em.

 

Yeah, they are kinda cool. This thread is making me think about the set I have stashed in my basement.

 

yeah .. i found a guy who had a set for 300 with new tread..not sure if i wanna do it though .. i can spend 400 more and get rims/tires that ive been lookin at
