Anyone know what kind of wheels those are? I love how they have that deep "bowl" look to them and surprisingly that's hard to find in wheels. I'm not a fan of wheels with lips. Lips belong on women. A lot of stock BMW wheels have that small offset deep dish look that I like.

Fronts look like the gramlights 57s
really tough to tell because they're rolling.
could also be the knockoff's by mb wheels (weapon)
either way, the front's are ok sized. But the rear's are unclear. Can't tell from this angle...
IIRC, a.mair has taken pictures of this guy's car. His car is low as hell and his wheels are aggressive as hell.
gonna guess the fronts are 18x10 and rears are the same if not wider. Both tires look stretched

Yeah those Gramlights look cool but I wish the spokes went all the way to the edge instead of stopping on the inside of the bead area.
Atilla, know of any that go all the way to the edge? I'm on my phone so I can't cut and paste a photo, but if you look at the shine auto page on rx7 club on their Feed thread, there is a pic of a grey 7 in race dress with some sweet wheels that are almost exactly what I want.

Those are Advan TCII
beautiful set really. They don't go all the way to the lip of the rim either tho...the RCII do however.
Unless you're talking about the time attack volk ce28's on the unpainted FD that's also on that page.
There's a lot of other options as well but it really depends on what you're lookin' for - 5 spoke, 6 spoke, 7 spoke - 10 spoke, split spoke, mesh face etc. Then comes factoring in specs and price. That in itself is a whole nother' headache heh. But cheah, i can help...

seriousely i obviously want them as cheap as possible as i would have 2 sets, the pretty ones and the sport ones. i want some rpf1's as well but i know where to get those.
since you seem to be the resident expert, if you know of any i would love some options.

$200 a wheel doesn't give you many options. The rpf1's are probably the cheapest but most efffective and they're about $300 a piece w/out taxes or shipping. You could go cheaper but there will be a good chance you'll be sacrificing some things, spec's wise.
Otherwise, if you don't mind used wheels, you can always hawk this forum for good deals or you can hit up some other sites for their f/s sections like myself. Tip: check out the evo forums (the evo 8 and 9's have similar fitments to ours - the evox's do as well but they are more aggressive)

yeah i was kidding about the $200 mark. i know i have to pay to get quality but i obviously want as cheap as posible. i don't really like the looks of the rpf1's but they are amazingly light, strong and a perfect example of form following function, they are not ugly but just not my taste. thats why i want a set as a track set as that is my ultimate goal with this car. but i want a set that looks great for daily driving. thats what i'm looking for right now.
