  • Re: 14x6 Panasports!!!

    Hey all- I'm in the process of doing the aspire brake swap and I'm shopping around for wheels. I want the 14x6 Panasports, 4x100mm... but I'm not sure whether the offset is ok or if any rubbing will occur. I'm not new to tuning but I just bought a couple of festivas to race in different events here in AZ. Thank you. -JD

    I've checked on Panasports. The smallest positive offset is 26 or 28mm, IIRC. I'm not sure how that would work. It might. Might not. Might for awhile...

    I'm almost tempted to try it, but the cost will be high, especially compared with the relative cost of a set of Miata rim lookalikes in 14 X 5.5".

      Which year/style are you referring to? Thank you.

        The 14 X 5.5 alloy rims were all "daisy" style like on Matt's BP car. They are seven spoke lookalikes of the classic Minilite/Panasports.
