I guess they would work as long as there a 110 bolt circle . I have alum. on the car now and im finding out how hard they are to locate .Im going to carlisle import flea market in May, if i don't find alum. i'll get back to you . Thanks .Im in Pa.

If you call Diamond Racing Wheels and say you want rims for a first gen Rx7 they'll know what you need. They are not DOT approved though.

Why does it got to be so hard to race a car, dot ,or not they have dot tires mounted on them , the wheels a safer than old alum.wheels . SCCA and others need to re write some of these rules to get more people to build cars and race them at a price we can afford ,WOW that felt good . Thanks

HUH? SCCA does not require DOT wheels for IT, just DOT tires. I think the comment was intended to indicate that the Diamond wheels would not be street legal, that's all. Diamond wheels are commonly used in IT without any 'rules' concern.
