previously closed thread with story behind wheels more pics (didn't have antiscammer placard) long and short is I got screwed over for rx7 wheels and these happen to fit a mazda wagon perfectly with 205 hoosiers would make a great combo. So help a brother out so he can get the right wheels for his rx7 before the next autocross season

I don't suppose you'd know how much they'd cost to ship to 30606?

Here are some new pictures. I cleaned one up a bit with polish just to give an idea of how they'll clean up. The is pitting in the chrome in the unmaintained area's of the wheels but the smooth chrome is in good shape. One hase slight rash over about 1/3 of its circumfrence. So these are some bling shots. You're welcome to get in between all those spokes with the blue magic but I've got a full time job already so you can have at it. These should overall come out as the light weight showstopper on grid at the autox

God I suck at taking pictures. I'm refering to the pictures of the chrome. They are in better condition than the pictures would indicate. Don't ask me where I got this picture

From a PM Melicha sent me about the wheels.

Re:wheels
<hr style="color: rgb(209, 209, 225);" size="1"> <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> I am not completely positive on who made them. I'm guessing enkei. It's only casting marks are on the inside of the wheel in the picture. It has that same weird casting lm mark which I thinks is the Enkei mark I believe. The good thing about it is that it's the same size wheel as miata racers use so Falkens and R comps are cheaper for this wheel than even the smaller sized tire since the sales volume is so high.

I took out my calipers last night to measure the hub diameter as well and it's a perfect fit if not a tiny( like 1-2 mm) bit bigger that the stock wheel hib diameter. If you manage to convince the misses you'd be doing a great service to me since my P5 is now stock and not used for anything but my brother's commute. I may have gotten shafted on these but you can check my old sales. I'm a good seller and make sure you're taken care of.

Melicha, I hope you don't mind me posting up your PM, I'm trying to help you sell these race wheels! :D

Thanks Foolish saved me a lot of time. JMV they fit over my rx7 four piston calipers so I don't see why they wouldn't fit over yours. I think as low as a 14" wheel will fit our cars. The 5-10mm increase over the stock brake shouldn't matter that much

Sorry just to clarify I just learned myself from a magazine it is not an enkei casting mark but a JML stamp which is like the underwriter's laboratory of wheels.

Look on your appliances for a UL sticker they basically test things to standards to make sure they don't kill people. They do this with wheels but obviously different tests

wowsa monday bump. I was gonna take a picture of these in the sun to show how nice they are. Those pics in the house just seem to outline every flaw these things have. Camera is officially kaput. These would also make some great winter wheels. 15" Blizzacks are cheaper than 16" ones

Final bump, I'm sad nobody wanted these. I guess big wheels are all people are interested in. This thread will remain unaltered until these are sold for future FS searches

12-28-2006, 08:01 PM
Just a bump to let everyone know these are for sale still. Maybe some have some cash to let off. No reasonable offer will be turned down. I just want to get rid of them. I also have some stockers for 100+shipping. See my other threads in the FS section for pics and info

These and the stock wheels are up on ebay. If you'd like to purchase I can pull the auction and we can bargain or you can "buy it now"

That's a great deal on some really light wheels. If I hadn't found such a great deal on some race wheels locally, I'd have picked these up from you. Hell, I'm still thinking about it! ;)

Dude, post up in the P5 section about those stockers. Someone should snatch them up! They're still at a rediculously low price.

...I'm sure you'd like to have some more bidders, anyway! :)
