They also made efini wheels in 16 i beleive with lug nuts that lined up with the spokes.
I think those rims are photoshop'd(??).. Its not 16's.. and 17's do not come in that pattern, as HDP has mentioned..

Also to correct you, efini is pre 99.. 99+ all have flying M logos..

But, all center caps for OEM wheels are interchangeable.. I have done it.. 93 will fit 99, efini will fit 99, Flying M's will fit.. 99's..

i think you are right, that pic with the red rx7 lightning in a world of thunder is photoshoped... to bad i like how they look. mazda should have made those wheels bigger then 16s. i just bought myself a set of 99 spec 16s and am going to put some yoko a032r tires on them.

Where can you get the BBS multispole rims that came on 99+ RZ? They look sweet.

Hey guys, I didn't read through everthing so sorry if I repeated something.

yeah you did something, but im sure smg994 would like the rims you have, the ones in the first pic in the thread have holes that line up with the spokes. your rims don't.

You would need a spacer.

They are: front 17x8 50mm offset, rear 17x8.5 50mm offset..
