The finish of these wheels is amazing. I got 15 by 7 with 4 7/8" backspacing. Fit was perfect. I roplled the lip of my fender, but I mighht not have needed to. I went around the block with these things, and all I can say is WOW! What a difference. The car is soooo nimble, steering response is excellent. Cannot wait for July 5th to try these out at AX.

Those look great Chris.

You'll have to run down to the UW parking lot this weekend to try them out and get the feel of having lots of grip.

I won't be there on the 5th so kick ass!

How much did the Panasports cost you? Where did you get them? Do you run spacers?

BTW- My Mom lives on California Ave in W Seattle near the Junction.

Chris.

The panasports look great, but your car looks more prepped for a rally than for an autocross. You need to get that thing lowered a couple of inches. You must have at least 4" from the top of the rim to the fender lip in the rear!

Looks great, Chris. I've always liked Minilites and Panasports.

Didn't they come with center caps?

Wheels were pricy at $240 a pop! They weigh like 16 lbs each. No center caps. No spacers. I got them from a guy who is a "middle man" for Panasport. I called Panasport directly, and they gave me his number.
