TX Wheels???

I was wondering will 17x9 +24 fit in the front and 17x10.5 +20 or +27 fit in the rear I looking at getting some replica wheels like Mustang or something like that. Oh I have a 88 TII RX7... And if they wont what will fit?

Buy the wheels. Put them on the car BEFORE you get tires. Use a jack to put them in the wheel wells where you want them to be and measure.

You might need spacers, you might need pull.

My attitude is "buy wheels, make them fit"
