The 93 RX7 wheels weigh 13.8 lbs, and the 94 on went up to 16, due to cracking problems on some wheels. The 94+ were reinforced.

I am not sure on how to check, other than weighing them, unless the person selling them has a 93, and is selling them after getting aftermarket wheels. Make sure to ask the seller which year wheels are.

 

Their is a guy selling two with MT for like 400 shipped should i get that.

 

Mickey Thompson DR's or Slicks?

 

Thats a decent price, thats about what I paid for my heavier drag wheel set-up with ET Streets.... 26 X 10.5"

 

dr's

 

What size?? For somebody always wanting to know details you sure dont post any yourself

 

he didnt specify but he told me this r the light versio and with MT dr's

 

hmmmmz... my friend has a set of honda prelude rims sitting in his house right now... i think they are the same bolt pattern and will fit on my car. question... anyone know how m uch they weigh and i htink they are 16x6.5? what would be the biggest tires i could fit on them? it would be free for me to use so if I could I mite just steal 2 from him.

 

^^those are too thin imo, but you could do a 225/50 DR on them if you really want to....

 

thats not gonna work very well with around 400 pounds of torque ehh... i have a nitrous setup running around 100 shot, thinking of bumping it up and i htink the torque mite be a little to much for 225's...

 

What is a good size MT DR to run on 16x8? I got a set of rx7 wheels and need tires now. I am thinking a 255 or 265 /50. I have to consider the offset of the wheel also. They are close to the suspension.

 

255/50/16's Anything else is too wide.

 

I have 26" MT ET Streets mounted on 16x8 (or 16x8.5?) 300zx TT wheels.

They hook really nice but I haven't found the best 60ft just yet. I don't think they are too wide or too heavy for me, I pulled a several 13.3x's with them and I only have intake and test pipes. Those times are also with a weak sauce 1.92 60fts, I was running the tire pressure too high.

 

Im going to get mines hopefully by middle of netr week. I got 2 rear 93 FD rims 13 pounds with the MT's ET streets i got them for 400 shipped with only 2 passes. Not the best deal but a decent one.

 

I just got a pair of 16x8 draglites for $100. Looks like Im going to get a pair of the 255/50-16 ET Street Radials too. Thanks for all the info guys.

 

what are the bolt patterns you got to fit the Z with the draglites? i was looking at them on ebay and I just want to know which ones I Should be looking out for. thx.

 

Im not sure. They were off of a 98 Mustang GT. We put them on to make sure that they fit before I paid the guy.


This is when we were test fitting them.
As a side note, that wheel with a worn out ET Street on it only weighs 36lbs.

 

VeeTec,

How have those wheels worked out for you? I still haven't put any tires on mine, but I am about too. Wanted to make sure there weren't any problems before I committed to the purchase. Wish you had a different setup?

 

Mine has worked out fine. Cheap alternative to drag wheels.

 

are these the wheels that you guys are talkin about?
