Corvette rims
This for a 3rd gen? The bolt pattern isn't corret. The RX7 is 5x114.3 and Vette is 5x120.7.. I have a set of C6 wheels (the 18x8.5 and 19x10) and can check when I get home, but doubt it would fit 'right'
You will need a pattern changing spacer. Usually they are about 1" wide so figure that with your offsets. IMO they would be a great choice if your going widebody on an FD otherwise not a good fit.

Thanks for the fast and helpful responses Guys. I'm going be doing something to make the rears wider. I'll wait for your Feedback blinD26. And fd _Neal where can I get this pattern changing spacer? If it is possible Ill post pics!
I cant remember the company I was going to use... Do a google search for bolt pattern adaptor and there will be lots of options... starting pretty cheap. I was going to use ones by a company that would custom machine them to order so they would be hubcentric on both the weels and the hub, I think they were about $400 per set and IMO well worth it.

Is there any high quality 1piece aftermarket wheel that is a split 5-spoke resembling the C6 Z06 wheel? The Advan model5 or maybe the CCW 505A are the closest ones I can think of.

I have nothing against V8's in an RX-7
Man wish I was able to just test fit it right now. Grah...But from what it sounds...no go? Probably with modification (and I'm not up for that just for a rim + not being safe) it'll happen?
Well glad to know the bolt pattern of the FD now. I'll just look for rims with same pattern. Oh how I hate rim shopping.
