Rotor wheels?

Does anyone know where to get a hold of a set of wheels like this ones? Any info on what years and models RX had this? What about name?

Thanks!
Alex

they are Mazda wheels that came on J-spec and European models, as far as I'm not wrong they were used from 81 til 83 (the bolt pattern changed in 84)
There are quite a few of those things on Europe, but it's hard to find a good set. And shipping them over would cost you a lot...

Over here in South aFrica,they came on the late `81 and early `82 Series 2 Rx7`s.

i have those on my car.I like them,their quite more unigue than the cross shape wheels.

There is no '80 LE, sorry.

I'd check out the German eBay site, those rotor wheels are sometimes listed, and shipping from Germany isn't too bad. Cheaper than shipping from the UK, anyway.

Fage,

You can ship these through the Belgian postoffice (KiloPost).
You have to take off the tyres first to get the box under 30kgs.
The usually arrive in the US within 10 days.
