3 Attachment(s)
check these out 13x7
guy wants 750 for em wth like new 215 50 13 BF Goodrich Radial T/A
they look great and I can't seem to find anything about them
American Racing rims that are from the 1980's?

Are these unobtanium rare or just rare becuase not much cn be found on them? The tires scream 80s rx7 being Radial T/A
I think 750 is quite the price.....
Any ideas? Thanks

and by quite I mean expensive.

If they are 4x110, then hell yeah they are rare. I found maybe 3 different manufacturers that sold that pattern in the states. BBS did some, Centerline had the solid drag wheels, and these from American racing. Anything else was done on a very limited run basis. Now if they are 4x114.3, there are a ton of wheel choices, since the MG's, Triumphs, Zcars and all those 4 lugs Mustangs had that pattern as well

Thorage327 thanks for the input I'll keep that in mind so I don't lowball the seller. Thanks
Any find any stock photos of these rims let me know.

If they're 4x110 I'd say his price is a little high, but he's got something rare, so maybe not. The tires are no longer available, but those wheels look great. And there are 205 60 13's to be had.

I used to run the old Falken FK-06u's in that size. It was a great tire for $52! I wish they still made that tire, especially in a 15" size

I bought a set of nice, 3 spoked 16 X 7 wheels with the 4 X 110 pattern. Turned out that my 87' RX7 has a different bolt pattern. Now I'm stuck with them. I think they were called "terminator" wheels. I will eventually look for a set of wheels with the right pattern, but for now I have bigger fish to fry.

These are the wheels, I wander what years the 4x110 bolt pattern will fit. Adapters are not a safe option in my view
