HELP!!! What kind of rims on a GSL 1985?
Like the subject said. I was looking today for rims on Pepboys and Tire Discounter, no luck. The ones I liked is for FWD.

Your going to have a hard time finding rims. All 1st gen rx7s Except for the GSL-SE have a Odd bolt pattern which is hard to find rims for. I believe panasport rims are one of the few that fit. Many have upgraded to GSL-SE suspension which has a better bolt pattern along with braking system

I have the Kosies on my 85 aqnd I personally think they look pretty damn good, nowere near as good as panasports, but still look good.
You might be licky enough to find a company that gets wheel blanks, and have the holes drilled for you, just make sure that yoiu get the right offset.

I believe that centerline wheels can be ordered with a custom lug pattern. That is what one of the tire/wheel dealership places up here told me. There was one other brand that they told me about also but I can't remember the name.

I paid $153 each for the Kosies, and $153 each for the tires. came to around $1300.
But I do agree with rotor vs PIston, if you dont already have wheels, than do the SE swap....
YOu get bigger brakes all around, and a whole **** load more wheel options. I almost wish I had done the swap, but now that I have the wheels its to late.
