Basicly, they say that because these wheels have not been certified to pass all DOT requirements. Likely as strong as one that has passed, but makes the cost a little less, as they don't have to recover the costs of getting the DOT certification.

Airflow is my life
Lighter in the bead area so it doesnt conform to DOT requirements. So curb rash can cause the wheel to fail. DOT requires a double bead or something like that. Race wheels sacrifice this excess outer weight to improve performance (accel and braking). The moment of inertia is lower (if thats what its called).

I bought a used set of 13"X6" Panasport "Rally Pro" wheels to fit Fiesta in like new condition for $300 last Fall. They weigh the same as the fairly lightweight 5.5" wide Enkei minilite copies they replaced. Now if I just had some horsepower...

they did answer you many times.... open your eyes... someone said call them which would solve everything.. someone gave you their website.. why cant you call them? are you scared? do you think they are going to say something mean to you? would you like one of us adults to call them for you? i mean what is your problem.. if you really wanted to know the answer you should call the source.

Panasport racing rims do not come with center caps.
For information regarding obtaining center caps to fit that particular rim- I'd call.... Panasport at 310/373/0071 and speak directly to them or get a number to an authorized rep.
Or take them to a wheel shop and find something generic.
