Exclamation Looking for 15x7 Panasports

I'm looking for 15x7 Panasport wheels for a 1985 GLS.

I would like to have a set but will buy any that are available for a fair price.


Thanks,

KH

Forget it, you will have an almost impossible time finding them used. Now that SCCA is allowing 14"/15" wheels in more race classes they will be harder then ever to find. You can find some generic/mesh type 15x7 wheels.

www.vickracing.us has some good deals on Panasports.

I have been looking (13x7's) for almost a year. I finally purchased a set of Circle Aluminum race wheels used(15x7's). Again a rare find.

Good luck.

Yes

I know a friend who runs 15-7's with 195 series tires and it works out great. I talked to MAriah MS today, and they told me that I can run 205's if I roll the front fender lips.

With the 195's I was told that the stops would allow me to still run new springs, I don't believe the Eibachs would be a problem, but you could call them to be sure.

Pictures of Eibach Pro-Kit with 15x7 TSW rims that did not rub fenders or springs. But did rub sway bar a tad at full turn lock:

Did not need to roll fenders. On 2nd though I should have got 15x8's with a hair more backspace and 205/50/15. Bigger contact patch.

I used to have a set of 15x7s

I do have a set of 13x9s and a set of 15x9 or 15x10s(3 pcs. carbon fiber outer and inner, alum. center......AWSOME!!!



Doesnt Panasport still make the 15x7s? I know they make the 13s????
