those are panasports...
relatively expensive but you can get them new. Some of the folks here have bought some in 15" sizes etc.

Wierd how they look like 1st gen Miata wheels. I guess Mazda tried to make the Miata wheels look like classic Mini-lites.

Okay, Panasport question time - What brand are they? Mine say 'Performance' on the lip of the rim and on the 3 remaining center caps. They look the same and are aluminum. I say aluminum because some jackass previous owner destroyed the back side trying to drill them to fit over the rear location screws on the rear disc hubs. Where can you find new ones, and how do you get around a problem of crooked wheels on account of not having them flush with the hub?

Panasports are made by Panasport. There are lots of knock offs and look alikes out there though.

panasports ARE knock off's ... the originals are (depending on who you belive) either made in the UK by Minilite or in Oz by a company called superlite

Does Panasport still make the 12A bolt pattern wheels, or do they just machine to whatever you've got? The knockoffs that came on my car are 13 x 7s and stick out past the fender lips. I'm looking for some 15s with the right backspacing and reliiefs on the back side for the damn rear hub screws. Does Panasport do all that?

hmm... will pulling those rear hub screws out cause a problem?

It shouldn't. You could always countersink the holes and use a flat head screw so that it is flush, though.

This is just a segestion I used to work in a tire shop. We had guys come in all the time looking for a paticular rim or somthing that looks simalar. Just go to the local non chain tire shop and talk to them chances are they can order what you want and know what needs to be done to have properly fited wheels.

good luck
