Tom, I just got a set of 16X7 Panasports with Goodyear Eagles 215 55
mounted on them. They look great and are almost the same size as the stock
tires. I haven't driven it more than around the block because my master
cylinder has developed a leak and needs to be rebuilt. But they appear to
work great. I plan to take the 6 for a longer cruise this weekend.

Subject: TR6 AutoXing questions and 300ZX wheel compatability
Lister that AutoX their TR6's...
I've started to set my '76TR6 up for autocrossing. I've spoken with Chuck
at K-speed and he has relayed that many TR6 autocrossers are getting the
16x7 panasports that are designed for 300ZX's. He also reports that front
clearance is better with that 16x7's than the 15x7's. This suggests that
that stock 300ZX's are compatible with stock TR6 drums and disks. Has
anyone else heard this or have information on how I might confirm this
through the internet? Another way to get at this is what is the bolt
pattern specs on stock TR6's? I can then go to the 300ZX list and ask them
for bolt pattern specs on Z-cars. Used 300ZX wheels are much cheaper ($300)
on the net than new 16x7 panny's ($700). I'm going to go ahead and get 15x6
panny's from K-speed to autox in, but would like to get some "cheap" used
16x7's to experiment with.
bye for now
