Default Best Prices on Panasports

What are some experiences out there?
What dealer seems to be the best?
Phil...???

I'm trying to set money aside to pick up a set of 13x6s before the ARRC. The 16lb MSWs are OK, and were cheap, but its the ARRC...

TIA

Scott, who'd love some TE37s just like Blake's, but just can't bring himself to do it.

I almost picked up a brand new set locally from a guy (his asking price was $600). He paid $638 or so shipped. Not sure exactly where he got 'em, but it turned out that he wanted to hang on to them for now. Instead, I bought a set of used Italian knock-offs that I can't find lug nuts for.

Knock-offs don't use lug nuts, silly.

I think my dad paid like $160 each from King Motorsports a year or so back for his 84 CRX in 13x6.

I sell Panasports and would be happy to quote you a price, do you know what offset you are looking for?

13x6 with about 4.5" backspace. That might equal about +35mm offset.
Feel free to email or PM a quote to me, or post here.

John,
At least on my car we've discovered that you can go as low as a 25mm offset with the 13x6 and still keep a 225 Hoosier legally under the fenders.
Panasport makes a 28mm 13x6, so thats what I'm looking for.

I run my current 33mm offset wheels with a 3mm spacer... No problems. Plenty of room (in stuffing 225 tires on a 91 Civic terms).

Yeah, I'm not sure what I can get away with, but figure I can stay conservative with offset and use spacers if needed. I "assume" what fits your car will fit mine, but I'd have to try it.

I spoke to the importer today and he is out of stock on the 13x6, 4x100, 28P wheels untill next week. The best I can do is $179.50 each, plus shipping.
The SCCA is allowing 13x7 wheels in GT-5 as of 2004 so I would think that there would be some used 13x6 wheels for sale. If you want to look for some used wheels, you might try posting on the http://www.gt-racecar.com website.
