Looking for Panasports

[mooS mooS]

hi everyone... just wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations as to where I can get reasonably priced Panasport wheels ...

I was hoping to find some 17" Classic FS styles .. but apparently, they only go to 16" and are 4-lug( at least from what I see in Panasport's dinky site ) www.panasport.com

I'm also open to maybe the C5CR 17" ( 5-lug)
or the C8FE

unfortunately, Panasport's site as well as the rep I got in touch with were pretty uninformative ....

questions:
1) Anyone know if the FS or even any Knock-offs ( I just like the looks don't really care about weight ) are available in 5-Lug ?

2) Pricing info on any of the above wheels

3) Are Miatas 4 lug or 5 ? , because I've seen a TON of Miatas with FS-Style rims, but just never bothered to look any further

Any help would be appreciated.. thanks all

The originals are Minilite's and can be had here: http://www.minilitewheels.com/

They have up to 17x7.5 for front wheel drive vehicles, and it looks like they drill them to fit your car.

down side, $300 per wheel.

miata's are all 4x100

They're a 38offset. that's the best I could find. You need at least a +45 offset for that size wheel...

You can also try I think it is RJ Watanabe. I'm sure about the last name bu the initials I'm not so sure on. just do a search with keywords watanabe and wheels. It's a japanese co. and they have some of the lightest wheels you can find. The looky hte same as panasports but come in multiple colors

I have replica Minilite/Panasport wheels on my MGB that look just like the FS style wheels. You can get them to fit just about any British car, but the largest I have seen them in is 15" and they are all either 4-lug or knock-off.

I think the older Miatas are 4 lug but the newer ones may be 5.
