Hello Rx-7 Community. My name is Milton and I own a 1984 GSL completely stock with 35k original miles. I purchased the vehicle in August as a tribute to my uncle. He owned many first gens thoughout his life and he inspired my love for cars. I am located in NJ and am looking forward to being apart of the RX-7 Community.
Tires were replaced in 93 with the same original tire style. I purchased the car without the factory radio but was able to locate one. I have to find a nice day to install it. I also was given the glass sunroof by the previous owner as well. The car is and was in emaculate condition when purchased.

I'm a big fan of original tires myself, however you probably should think about getting a new set. Maybe mounted on another set of rims so that if you wanted to put the older ones back on for a show or something, its easier. The problem is, tires that are 20 - 30 years old can fail w/o warning. Depending on when and how fast your traveling at the time, it can lead to heart breaking results. It takes very little damage to total out one of the these cars (according to the insurance companies).
Thanks ! I am currently looking for an extra set of wheels and tires for that exact reason. Not many options out there for 4x110. Once I get new wheels I want to refinish the oem wheels. New tires will follow .
