Nothing looks better than a nice mesh rim with lots of lip, except maybe a Panasport with lots of lip.

15" Riken black mesh, though I think I'm liking Revhed's gold mesh more.

Might be a bit hard as Simmons don't make them anymore. I bought mine second hand for about $1000 AUD. Well, they aren't exactly mine anymore as I sold that car a long time ago.

This is also correct........

The 1st prototype began in 76 and was the X605 it was completed in 77
The S comes from the 1st yr model sold in the US on 4-24-78
The the GS came in 79 AKA P642
(2+2 models were offered in Japan from 79 to 83)
The GS from 8-1980 on wards was the P815
The GSL of this yr was the GX model in Canada & only 2500 cars were sold between both US & Canada sales combined.......!!!
In 1981 they were Series II P815's
Then on 7-1982 thru 1983 the GS & GSL became known as the P130 (GSL 1st yr rear disk)
In 1984 The GSL-SE ended the fleet thru 1985 with a P132 The Mac Daddy 1st Gen (Larger 4 Disk 4x114) A stronger Tranny & stronger rear-end & sway bars front/back. And came stock with 135 HP
Japan had the plessure of a 12A Turbo SE-T The P132T or just the 6 port SE (But their SE-T Interior was a basic GS Interior......Bummer...... )
The 6 Port (2 ports by 3 ports) DEI (Dynamic Effect Intake) & EFI....(This was the only engine option the US had) This was also the 1st yr power stearing was offered........................................... ................... Ahh the history of our love life.................
I Still Love Them All......>>>>>>>
