Old school (SSR, Work,etc.) rims,what fits on FC's?

So like the title says, does anybody have or know if, for example rims like the SSR super mesh or fulll reverse rims will fit on an '88 GTU? like do they have our bolt pattern? or even some of the older style work rims? I'm looking into it because I want something that will bring back kind of that 80's style to my car. Currently I have black Fn01r-c's on my FC. They look great and all but it just doesn't satisfy me. Any info or pics would be great.

Thanks,
DAvidf

What diameters and widths do you want ideally? I can help you with fitment. We import Work Equip wheels but only up to 15" diameters.

Riken mesh

This is my Riken mesh. I have no idea what year. 7Jx16 +20 5x4 1/2 lugs about 14lbs.

**** dude, only about half an hour before a bump?
You're going to destroy the reputation Kauai is a laid-back island.

FIRST of all, you need to get the width and offset from those rims.
THEN, you need to look at the "Official FC fitment" thread around here.
All the information is in there.

Each rim has multiple offsets and widths, and not all of them will fit.
I've seen SSR reverse mesh with negative offsets - these will NOT fit.

well, I don't know what widths i'd want. I just wanna know if they have stuff avalilble. rishie, is 15 the biggest? I'v seen 18" ssr's. but i guess that's just work. Do you think 15's on my gtu would look good?
thanks everyone for your input.

So Rishie, I checked your site out, nice selection. I guess if i'd get anything I'd get the equip 01 and or the VS-KF. if there is the equip 01 in 15 or 16 i guess that would look good. or the vskf in chrome. and in 17" format. but i'd also like to go wide. at least 8" what kind of offset would i be looking at? again any info would be most helpful and appreciated.

Peace,
DAvidf

you could do all the way to a 9J with a 0 offset if you want to pull your fender a hair
