I don't have these RX-7 rims, I have the ones that look more like the P5 wheels, but they are from a '91. Yes, the bolt pattern is correct, on mine, the offset is 40mm and I had to get the center bore widened slightly to fit my P5. It cost me $100 to do that and I paid $100 for the wheels on ebay. I want to say that the weight on mine is around 15 lbs, not sure on these. I use them for autox and they have been great for that.

No, they don't fit. I had an extra set from my old RX7 which I wanted to use for autocross and they wouldn't bolt on. They were hitting the centerbore part. Offset was 38 or 40, which is also wrong.

Instead, I found some 15x6" Millenia wheels which bolted right on, were lightweight (11 pounds) and right offset. The RX7 wheels were like 15-16 pounds each. For more info on Mazda OEM wheels which will fit, see:

I found mine using www.car-part.com
