New Wheels for the '79 RX-7

I got a great deal on a set of 16x7 wheels with nearly-new tires froma former second-gen owner who decided to concentrate on his '69 Vette convertible after the RX-7's engine popped.

The tires are 205/55-16 front and 225/50-16 rear. They're all the same height, which is really a bit too tall, I think.

They all fit at stock ride height after rolling the fender lips. I think I'll go with 205/50-16 or 214/45-16 next time around.

Reasonably beefy out back, but needs lowering...
