1st Gen wheel choices limited?

Trying to find some wheels for my FB RX-7 but am having a hard time trying to find something i like that has all the right measurements! It's actually proving quite stressful! I've almost settled on some FR17 Simmons which are approx. AUD$2400 (US$1900) with tyres here in Sydney. Unsure as to whether i like charcoal or white more (they're going on a red vehicle).

I had my eye on some Watanabe RS's, but shipping them from Japan is prohibitive financially. What else is available? I'm sure you guys in the states will know of plenty of wheels. Preferably very light ones as 1 of the major advantages of the 1st Gen's is light weight so i'm trying to increase that advantage as much as possible!

Pic's of anything suitable would be fantastic, and websites and/or prices would be helpful as well. Preferably around the same price of the Simmons as well.

Thanks everyone!

How about some of these?



I'll give em to you for a great deal. Just comes down to freight to Australia. I can check air freight costs straight from Japan to you.

Do you have 4x110 PCD? These are quite lightweight.

I'll give these to you for umm:

$1250.00 plus shipping and any surcharges that may apply. That's either Work Equip 01 or 03 in 15x7.0 and 8.0. Custom offset of course. 4x110.

This set retails for about $1600.00. I order a lot of these for old corolla and Datsun 510 etc...

Laters, Rishie
