Got the Panasports mounted

Here are a couple of pics of the Panasports that I got after 10 months. I was very apprehensive about the fitment and possible rubbing, but it came out perfectly.

Let me know what you guys think, thank you.

I special ordered them from Toysport, they said it would take 6-8 weeks and it took 10 months.

They are 16x7's, if you wanted them with a standard bolt pattern like the SE then you would get them probably within a month. I paid $910, they threw in the shipping since it took a lot longer than they had led me to believe.

910 really?

I've wanted a pair of them ever since I saw them on an Austin Healey at the garage behind me..........they reminded me of watanabe wheels (I think that's how it's spelled)

Do u know where I could get a set of 15's for an 82?

You can call Toysport at 323-755-1177, ask for Mario. They can order anything, the only reason why my wheels took so long is because they are 4x110 and 16".

Email sent, hopefully they get there since I tried to send pictures to my brother's hotmail addy and they got bounced back to me.

They didn't give a reason, hopefully it was something other than the size of the pictures or mailbox.

Gracias. As soon as I learn how to use it I will post pictures of everything. Thanks for your help everyone.

https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=70030

It is official, I suck at the internet and all pertaining programs. I guess you can't post pictures like the old forum, can someone be kind and patient enough to inform me how to post pictures in a post?

I can't stand this, the email just got bounced back to me RotaryRyan. I am kind of frustrated at this point, I modified all the pictures I have so none of them look good anymore and they still aren't posted.

Will take more later today and will play with them tonight to see if I can get this **** right.

Hotmail didn't give a reason why it got bounced, this is the exact message:

Delivery to the following recipients failed.

That looks awsome!! I usually prefer 15's but the 16's look nice! How much did you lower your car?

Alright Web777, how did you do it?

Did you mean the pictures or the wheels are small? In my opinion the wheels are pretty damn big, they fit pretty tightly and there is no suspension travel left. If you meant the picture, I resized it so that I could possibly fit it within the forum guidelines.

okay yall, they need to post a sticky or something about this but if you cant post stuff like extra smlilie, hyperlinks,pics,etc then you probably still have it on basic message editor interface.

Go to USER/CP at the top> then got to EDIT OPTIONS> then got to the bottom and there are three levels of message editor interface -Basic, standard, and enhanced. Basic does not have smilies and stuff, but the other two do.

They drive great, a little harsh since there is no suspension travel left. I didn't weigh the wheels, but on one website I think they were 20lbs each. The Enkei's on the Maxima are about the same weight and they are 18's, wish they made them in 4x110.
