Post up some pics when you get them on the car.

How much were they???
I totally agree with you. I wish that the rears came totally gold like the front. I wonder if I could have those anodized?

I paid 1,609 for wheels and tires. That's dealer pricing though.

Wheels look good and are definitely right for what u do with the car.

Dunno of any anodizing shops in the area, but there is a motorcycle place in caseyville that does nice powdercoating jobs.

Yes, I've heard! Kills men by the hundreds! And if he were here, he'd consume all non-rotary engines with fireballs from his eyes...and bolts of lightning from his ****!

I think the wheels look great. I have a question though, because I didn't see anything on this: did you change the bolt pattern of your wheels when you upgraded the brakes?

Maybe I've lost something in the translation - the stock pattern for an Rx7 is 5x114.3 (5x4.5 in standard terms). The pattern you listed will fit a Camaro nicely though.

Well it's good that you ordered the right ones. You'd probably be pretty unhappy with your shiny new wheels sitting next to the car and not fitting

If you would have read the thread, you would know they won't arrive for another 3-4 weeks. Coming straight from WELD.
