Will 16 inch wheels from a 88 turbo fit on my 86 GXL non turbo RX7 as far as size.
Thanks Rob

 

Your GXL is a five lug, right? Then yes.

 

Yep, all 5-lug FC wheels will fit on any 5-lug FC.

 

Yes my GXL is a five lug

 

yes

 

gotta love the 7's try that on a newer ford

 

Yea my Gxl 87 has the four lug on it... i believe it is the same size as hong ... 4X100 or whatever... anyone know the exact size on the 4 lug...cause i am looking in to some rims that are on a civic that are cheap.. i would like to conver mine to 5 lug.. but not sure what all that holds to change.

 

from the FAQ...

What size are my wheels?
The stock sizes all have an offset of 40mm or 40 ET and are:
14x5.5 (steel) w/114.3x4 bolt pattern (Base)
14x5.5 w/ 114.3x4 bolt pattern (Base, Luxury, 87.5-88 SE)
15x6 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (GXL, Sport, GTU, 91 coupe)
15x6.5 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (convertible)
16x7 w/ 114.3x5 bolt pattern (Turbo, GTUs, Infini IV)

 

No...no it doesn't. If it does then it's not a GXL. There is no GXL with 4 lug hubs. Read the FAQ, Archive, and Specifications: What did the 2nd Generation RX-7 come w/. Options & standard features threads.

 

anyone care to explain why a gxl would come in 4-lug?? just curious.

:edit: i was sure they didnt but i thought maybe there was some variations if the model or something.. thanks for the clarification

 

See my above post.

 

No GXL came from the factory with 4 lugs. His car is also 21 years old and could have had stuff changed for some odd reason.

 

Yea, while I agree I strongly doubt it. More than likely it's a case of mistaken identity.

 

Something that hasn't been mentioned: the s4 turbo wheels are very heavy and will decrease your car's performance.

 

Probably not mentioned because it's not relevant to the question.

 

True, but I hope it's something he considered.

 

True. I just like how people assuming that because their car has something now that it came that way from the factory. In this case, it's probably true. Nobody in their right mind would put 4 lugs on something.

 

Yea, I've seen that trend in a few other threads.

 

Ok sorry if i sounded stupid that wasnt my intentions... but my title clearly says GXL on it, as well as the fenders but i mean may have been switched i bought fromr a dealer really cheap...so i take it my size is one of these two?

14x5.5 (steel) w/114.3x4 bolt pattern (Base)
14x5.5 w/ 114.3x4 bolt pattern (Base, Luxury, 87.5-88 SE)

Just curious... i mean i will check the title again but pretty sure it said Gxl on it.

 

My 86 GXL has 5 lug.But I didn't know the turbo wheels are heavier.
