just got these so i can continue with the project. I am going to be installing the RE Speed "Big Brake" kit here soon. The caliper on passenger side is un-bleedable since the bleeder is broken off and rusted to hell and back. So might as well just do the upgrade now and solve the "no brakes" issue. But that means i need a 15" or larger 5x114.3 wheel. Not sure yet if the stock rx7 wheels will work but there are doubts. So i found something that will work at least for now. They are 16x8.5 Primes, with a 3.5" backspacing. It will clear. Will stick out a mile, but will clear. Like i said, temporary. Or if i find two more, i might do some serious flares....

Also, might be looking for two more of these if anyone sees any.
