There's a few stamps around the hub of the wheel, what do they say? I remember seeing a few of these years ago on Japanese Auctions, and its killing me that I cannot remember the model name.
Behold, a race S13 that is not meant for dorifto. This Nissan 240SX hails from 1991, a good decade before most in the US knew about drifting. It was campaigned in the IMSA Camel GTU class by Leitzinger Racing, among others. Bob Leitzinger was the most successful of S13 racers, however, and the S13 won IMSA GTU’s manufacturer’s championships for four years straight starting in 1991. How does your drift missile like them apples?
Heres what I could find. Still doesn't say what they are, but might be a lead. Look into the early 90's racers, maybe even try contacting the people that own that car and ask them. Have you tried emailing panasport directly?

wow!! thx men! You are the best!)) I saw that S13 on Panasport website, but didnt assumed that has some info about it.
No, I didnt email to Panasport, but now, when I have info, I will!
Thanks again!
Let us know what you find out. It's interesting to know about these older wheels. Especially ones that seem to have been made for track only or a race series.

So, my attempts has failed. I sent emails to US Panasport and Japan, but no one answered me. Any ideas?
Butch Leitzinger is still involved in Pirelli World Challenge and (afaik) still runs an occasional NASCAR race at Sonoma or the Glen... He's been a hired gun roadcourse ringer for them for years. You could probably find him on Facebook or something, I would almost imagine he'd be amuse if you showed up with a question about those old wheels.
