Need help with wheels
This is my first post here.
I need wheels for my se fb. I'm looking for light 15 x 6.5 or 7. I have seem a lot of wheels here in the pics but no always you say what wheels are using. I didn't like the panasport because the offset. So I'm looking something near 40 offset.
Recommendations?

If you like the LOOK off the panasports but not the offset, Konig makes a set that look very similar, are way cheaper and come in the size you are looking for called Rewind. You can pretty much look anywhere and find a wheel that fits, unlike us non-se owners with the fucked up bolt pattern. The key is you have to take your time and search. Go pick up a car mag and just start going to the advertisers webpages.

You are right, Rewinds will NOT fit the SE. They only come in the 0 offset.
I went through this last year and had a bitch of a time finding decent wheels for this SE. I got some nice Konigs GT-R wheels for my last SE about two years ago that were 38 offset in a 6.5 wheel. They looked and fit great, but now are discontinued. Pic at link below.

You can check out the SuperLites, which can be punched for your pattern. They are not cheap --- about $175 per wheel I believe. I think they are made in Australia. Link below.

I would up with some 3 piece SSR mesh wheels that had been reconditioned. Bought them here on the board. I was a bit nervous given the 25 mm offset, but they look great and fit perfectly.

Whatever you purchase, I recommend something with a lip. I think it gives it more of a "dish" look and really sets off the car nicely.
