The steelies are getting (relatively) expensive. I sure wish I could find some old Kosei K1s 15x7s for the $99 deals I heard about years ago.

Speaking of which - are spacers needed with the Diamonds in order to clear the calipers?

Thanks,

FC's need one at least a 1/4", I use a 1/2" spacer and 4" backspace up front.

I have 4 wheels for First gen 1979-1985 RX-7 with wide body fenders. I have several photos, too big to post on this site, email me for photos.

Two of the wheels are HRE 3 piece aluminum wheels. Size 15" diameter, 10" wide, 4" back spacing, 4 x 110mm Mazda bolt circle, made to clear 1st gen RX-7 inner wheel wells. Must have flared feners or wide body fenders to clear outer wheel wells. This pair of wheels cost me $900 new, and I will sell the pair of HRE 3 piece aluminum wheels for $400 and you pay shipping.

Two of the wheels are Diamond racing steel wheels, Size 15" diameter, 10" wide, 4" back spacing, 4 x 110mm Mazda bolt circle, made to clear 1st gen RX-7 wheel wells. Must have flared feners or wide body fenders to clear outer wheel wells. This pair of wheels cost me $300 new. I will sell the pair of Diamond steel wheels for $120 and you pay shipping

These wheels will clear 12" brake rotors with Wilwood Dynalite calipers.

Email me speedturn "at" hotmail.com for clear photos of these wheels
