Stole 'em about 3 weeks ago. Must be an old set as fitment is a pain in the butt and still not perfect. New set I've seen on Mark's car is much more plug and play.

It's like you said..."you gotta pay to play"

Looking good theorie.

I think you should put the centre caps on due to the wheels being polished and being more on the pretty side rather than hardcore or racey side. RPF1s did not but these ones look incomplete without the caps imo.

I was curious as to how these might look on an fd. considering its an OE wheel i think they look damn good, a 20-25mm spacer on the rear would really make them look hot.

for the rules, some photos from 2008

There are two ways to get a BAD *** Rx-7 ***....

1. wingless
