If you want the 8 spoke look then yes, Panasports are the way to go.  If you
want another style, look into American Racing.  I got 15 x 7 two piece wheels
for around $145 each.  The have cast centers and spun rims, welded together,
are quite light, they are my race wheels, I have a motley collection of
various steel wheels laying about, a set of magnesium racing wheels for the
TR4 (Factory option, I think, I just mildly berated Chris Kent for calling
them Panasports) and I just thought of something.

I know a fellow here who has a set of used 15 x 5.5" aluminum wheels, they are
sort of inverted dish style, common on Sunbeam Tigers.  These were marketed by
Dan Gurney, or at least they have his name cast in the back.  All four of these
would probably set uou back about the same as one new wheel.  Let me know if
you are interested.
