OE or Panasport?
The more I look at my awful photoshop the more I fall in love with panasports. What do you think?

Quite expensive true, but I don't like modern wheels on first gens. I especially loath 5 spoke rims on them.

Zyrano - what size are your panas? I just picked up a used set but am waiting to buy tires til after I do some needed maintainenece.

--edit-- assuming those arent the 13s w/ racing tires, but the top ones look bigger.

I love my Panasports, I had to switch to Volkswagen lugbolts though. But luckily enough, I had some Ronal lugnuts sitting around from my dad's old Scirocco.

I say go with the panasports, I love the classic styling. I wish I could find some that would fit my car.

Sorry, I have two different sets, 1 set of 15x7, and the other set as 13x7 (on race rubbers. I'm going to see if I can fix the two black ones or maybe pick up two new silver ones...
