what year rims are interchangeable?

I am looking for another set to keep spare scrubs in case i blow one at the track. I dont need anything fancy. right now im running 225/45 13 i believe. Is that a stock rim or oem 13"?

I just want something that works, it can look like total crap for all i care. So what cars and years can i look for? Read something about supras....

Please provide your car series and year so we all don't have to take courses with a Psychic just to answer your question!
..Now,if you know the stock bolt pattern and offset and width you can work with that.Have you looked up that info yet?

Lol, sorry im used to corvette forums where everyone knows me. 1979 rx7. What ive seen so far is that i dont think the 13" rims are the stock size...

The faq says 4x110 unless i have a gsl-se... but since i dont have a title and it has been built and crashed and rebuilt since it is spec rx7, i have no idea if it could be one.

Im more wondering how to expand my search for rims that fit and will easily run 225/45/ 13 tires

If you have a 79, it's not a gsl-se... Someone may have swapped it over to se spec 4x114.3 and if its a spec racer it is possible. Junkyards are great places to find 13" fb rims if you have to find 4x110... beyond that you'll probably have to do some searching. I would measure that lug pattern and see what you have, if your lucky enough to have the 4x114.3 conversion enjoy easy wheel findings in all sizes.
