Post pics of FD wheels on FC
 

hey, im thinking about putting some 3rd gen. wheels on my fc, and thought it would be nice to have a post of everyones 3rd gen wheels.
Im thinking of putting white or black powder coated on my black fc, so if you have powdercoated wheels please post pics!:D

You would need spacers. I wouldnt do it.

Here is 87GTR's car with Powder coated FD rims. This car looks great with thoes rims.

yeah that does look really good

Does it really throw off the handling that bad to use spacers? I mean, I'm in the process of buying a T2, and I want to know if using a good set of aftermarket wheels with the right offset would be just as good or better then using FD wheels with spacers?

To those with 3rd gen rims...Are you running 3/4" spacers on all four wheels? What size tires (F/R) are you running? I'm thinking about 225/245 on 3rd gen rims and am wondering if I'm going to run into body rubbing issues or suspension clearance issues.

Thanks
Mike

I got 225/45 front and 245/45 rear with 25mm spacers. So far no problems...but I've only had the setup for a few days.

H&R spacer part number?
 

I was on H&R's website, they have no RX-7 applications listed. If anyone knows the part number for the 25mm, hubcentric spacers, please post it.
