rx-7 wheels

[jdm93dsm]

i heard the rx-7 bolt pattern is the same as the dsm bolt pattern (1st gen?) does anyone know for sure. My friend was going to give me his stock rx-7 wheels (BBS) that are 15" but i think they look much better than my stock 16" wheels.

RX-7 wheels are for RWD cars, not FWD. The offset difference puts extra loading on the wheel bearings and fouls up where the geometry of the suspension intersects with the tire's contact patch.
