Chrome Rewinds

[Fun_in_my_z]

Hey every one.

My goal is to have my car in primer by the end of this summer. Only a little bit left to go!

I really want different rims for my baby when she is ready for paint.

I looked at msa and a feiw other places. Can somebody point me into the correct direction? or give me some info on thease?

You won't find Rewinds in Chrome. They are Aluminum and come either painted Silver (with Polished Lip), or painted Gun Metal (with Polished Lip)

MSA, or "ggtyler" (on eBay) are good places to get these.

16" Panasports! Best looking wheel for 1st gens IMO.

What is the difference between them?

[Marty Rogan]

About $450!!!!

Pana's are nice, but very pricey. I have 2 sets that I bought before you could get 15" Rewinds. Otherwise, I probably would have bought those.

Bill, the Panasports are really nice looking wheels however, if you want to be different, as tons of folks run the Panasports, you may consider something different. Your choices will increase if you incorperate wheel adaptors that change the stock Datsun bolt pattern to the Honda bolt pattern. Most wheels available today are intended for front wheel drive cars (more offset, compensated by the applicable width of the wheel adaptors), so there are by far more wheels to choose from. You can opt for 15", 16", 17" or even 18" wheels. As long as you don't use a wheel wider than 7" or 8" you should be able to have them fit under your Z without issues.....any wider wheel and you will likely need to convert to coilovers to achieve for the additional clearance needed. Just some food for thought Bill.

Yup food for thought. In my neck of the woods i could make a exact copy of any z here and nobody would know....but i dont wanna do that...All the zs here are eather 260s or v8s.

Save your money for the paint work. Don't let any other purchase get in the way. Worry about the wheels after. Then, keep your eyes on eBay and get a deal.

Just for the record, here's what they look like.

IMHO they are very sharp looking

I drove that car Sunday!

DAMN! Those look very nice. Soo many beautiful angles for reflecting.

I wonder if Panasport sells those wheels Chromed, or if the buyer sent them out to be pimpified?
