They're the 323 LX 13" alloys. I was going to use a set of RX-7 SE polished phone dial 14"s but I would have had to buy tires for them and then when I decided to sell the car it didn't matter anymore.

i think i gotta problem with my speedometer too....it reads the wrong speed ....for example it said like i was doing 90mph but it odviously felt and looked like i was going 60. .....
everybody on the highway could not have been goin 90+ Mph!!!
and if this is an old problem i think my car has even less mileage than i thoughtsigpic

I don't care as much about the speed being off. I can put a cheap GPS in it and watch the speed with that.
heck, Tom Tom is adding for one @ 99 bux.
That's what I use in the big truck I drive daily and it's speedo is out 1/2 the time.
The speedo really bothers me not working while I'm driving on base. The speed must be keept under the limit posted. PoPo is thick too!Last edited by riverrunnernky; 12-27-2008, 12:30 AM.David

Lithium greese is best for speedo cables. You have to remove the cluster and using a spray can of lithium greese and the straw attachment, gently spray alot of lithium greese down the cable. I do it on a regular basis just for this reason. Its a bitch but really helps and pro longs the speedo cables life. But, also realize that these cables HATE cold weather. As nice and taken care of as mine is, when it got into the teens up here, it would howl for a good little while till the cabin and engine compartment where warm.Mazda
