Black P5 is right. If you used a thicker aftermarket sway, but held it on using the stock bracket, it will break. Hit up AWR for their bracket relocation kit. They will sell it to you without the swaybar.
But yes, that bracket will fail due to daily driving stress if you're using a thicker...
Cool man. I was going to get them powder coated too, but I didn't have time. I'll take the pics this weekend. I think shipping would probably cost more than the rims though. I dunno, I've never shipped rims.
They came off of an 02.5. They are polished, but I think one has minor curb rash. I would take pics, but my digital camera broke. I am willing to ship, but I don't know how much that would cost.
Man, I've got stock wheels with no tires. I live in California though. Do any of you guys drive out here for Sevenstock? Just a random question because I know some rx-7 owners that have protege's.... like me!
