Well, let's see -- American Racing makes a mag that has the correct bolt
pattern, as does an outfit called Kaizer. The Kaizer wheels are very light,
and cost about $140 each, I believe. If you want to know more about the
Kaizers, try Chris Kantarjiev's website (www.dimebank.com).
Or, if you can locate some TR7 wheels,
they also fit the Spit/GT6, and are 5.5" wide, allowing you to fit Yokohama
509's, (185/60-R13), which put 6" of tire on the road, with a profile low
enough to clear a GT6 or Spit with no body banging. I have a set of TR7 wheels
with
said Yokohamas, but since the tires don't wear well, I don't use them all that
much. (I'm also looking for lighter-than-steel wheels.) But the slotted TR7
wheels are not hard to find used, and are usually cheap; I got mine for $100,
which is probably what I'd sell them for too one day.
