I have the same 7" rounds...though I put Autopal (hella fakes) H4 conversions in

Dude! Nice brick! Welcome to the forums.
Wheels in your pic from the PO appear to be Fittipadli aero wheels. A buddy of mine has them on his 4k.

[rvolvor]

diamonds are another week and a half or so out.....coilovers are sitting at work half done; my boss decided to step up and help me out with cutting the strut tubes down and cutting off the stock spring perches....he tossed the strut housings in the lathe for me....

[skrapez]

[rvolvor]

talked to a few people from here at wuste this weekend who said they thought they saw something on here about my car...so I figured i would dump a pic I found of my car from the show into my thread.

[macleanshaun]

Those wheels look familiar....
Specs?
Car looks GOOD.
