RX7 rims on the WAY!!!

Finally decided to splurge and buy them. I picked up a set in good condition for $240 shipped. I think it is a pretty killer price. Anyway I may have them powdercoated as they do have some scratches on them from just being handled with mallot hands. Anyway I now can add my old probe rims to the list of parts for sale.

Tom,
Nice price! I think you'll really like them. Remember, the stock SVX lug nuts won't work with them
-Bill
p.s. 16x8 with 50mm offset. The bore is within a mm or two of the stock SVX rim's

Congrats Tom! I think I paid $250 for mine but I had to drive 4 hours to get them!





You'll love 'em!

ok Correction, the guy gets back to me to give me the correct shipping. So it is costing me 280 for the set. Still not too shabby in my mind. I am wondering what color to powdercoat them.... What do u guys think?? BTW my car is ebony

How about polish them to a chrome-like finish?

...either that or black to match the engine.

My vote is for Gunmetal or Smoke. Nice and low key. But that's just me.
