Regarding the Panasports, if you contact the Panasprot importer he will refer
to his authorized dealer: Dale. But that is a good thing. If you order via
Dale you can be sure they will be the correct sizes needed to fit a Tiger
properly.
Plus there are alternatives to Panasports. One of which is
www.psvintagewheels.com for a five port kidney bean wheel specially tailored
for Sunbeam Tigers (shameless plug).

NICE, VERY nice Duke. I hate to admit to being envious, so I wont, even tho I
am.I just have to have a stroker engine. Maybe I won the lottery last night.
Duke I'm running 15" Minilite's but the dollar was worth more than the pound
back then. I think Dale has a deal worked out w/ Panasport. I think Jim
Morrison was running some 17" wheels but I don't know if the low profile tires
have a larger footprint than 15s or Panasport may even have a 16" by now.I
also don't know if you can buy directly from Panasport or have to buy them
from Dale. Others may know this. The total project was interesting from start
to finish. Thanks for all the pics and updates. I'm sure others will benefit
from your experiences.
Tony
