Dave,  Hello and thanks.  It seems like this "what wheel and tire fits"
story will never end.  I am a fair ways off from buying new wheels and tires
but I just assumed your wheels were 14".  Is there any advantage to putting
on 15" wheels?  Did your car originally come w/ 14" wheels?  Is this one of
those cases where the speedo no longer gives true readings.  I will
eventually be driving my roadster as a street machine - no racing.  For that
reason I would likely stick w/ a stock wheel size.  Thanks!  Larry.

Hi Larry (and list)

For the record, the label on the box my Panasports came in said:

Size:          6JJx15
Bolt spacing:  4x114.3
Hub size:      66 mm
Offset:        15

They fit well on my 67.5, no rubbing with 195/50R15 Yokohama A520's.

The center caps are just a hair too small on the front hubs, but 
maybe if I clean off 30 years of grease buildup, etc they will.

I figured that I'd post there numbers, because when I asked 
originally, and searched through the archives, I never got a straight 
answer.

Dave
