Gsl-se wheels
:Well after all the mechanics; full RB exhaust, k&n, injectors cleaned, louvers and bra, new moldings, a/c all redone blowing at 36 deg at vents, new calipers,rotors and ss brake lines all around, paint is going to have to wail till tax returns so I put my new side moldings on ( yes I will have to strip them back off) but they compliment the 7's lines so well, I think I have that 80's look I love. Yes those are original louvers ( cost me 100 bucks), love or hate them, I have bronze glass all around and don't want to tint them, and the louvers make a world of difference in south fl heat. Only thing I am contemplating is doing the stock wheels black.
Found this on fl cl looks good on the black, but I think would look better on my white SE minus the red. By the way they are only asking 4k for the SE. What do you all think?

Stock SE Wheels
I recently refinished a set of SE stock 14 inch wheels, and mounted them on my 1997 Geo. Personally, I think they look better on the Geo than on the RX-7, but they definitely look much better with the satin finish Stainless Steel paint that I used, as compared with the original lathe turned and clear coated finish. I just hand sanded the clear coat to feather the edges where it was chipped or peeling off. If you want to put a glossy finish on them you really need to have the clear coat removed, probably best by plastic media blasting.

My SE Wheels are looking pretty bad. So it sounds like your saying the tires need to come off, and the wheels taken to a professional wheel refurb shop to remove the old clear coat, polished up and a new coat of clear coat installed? Sounds Pricey LOL
