Wheels?

I'm new to rx7's and have a dumb question. I'm looking to purchase some wheels, and would really like to get a low offset wide wheel. Does anyone know what the limits are without rolling the fenders? The car is a 3rd gen.

Any help would be great! Thanks!!

FD's need a high offset like +45 or +50mm to maximize the width of wheel under a stock fender.

CT New RX-7 owner needs wheels

On the same subject of wheels...I'm looking for (I can't believe I am saying this) a new set of 84/85 GSL-SE wheels. Do such things even exist anymore?
