Rims

Anyone know of a set of 13" rims that will fit on a 85 gsl-se?

I know that the -se came with 14" rims, I need small wheels for racing.

I know of a set up in Carson City for cheap! They guy wants like $100 and he might ship them for you. They're old enkei's solids with the holes in them. maybe 10 holes per wheel? I'll Send you an email on the downlow so nobody can swipe them from you

Careful

You might have problems with the brake calipers hitting the wheel if you put 13 inchers. Anything you buy, made sure the inner diameter is similar to your GSL-SE's.

the reason for 13" wheels...

smaller wheel = bigger final drive ratio = better acceleration
