Hi Michael - chiming in with what I know... and what I don't :-) I think
the roadster wants between a neutral offset and an 11mm negative offset.
That works out to 3.5" to 4" backspacing on a 7" wheel. This is just
hearsay, though, so please verify with others. Still got stock rims on my
69.

One of the nicest things about the Panasports is that they are available
in the exact right size for our cars. Chuck Kurtz, gokspeed@aol.com can
hook you up with the appropriate units. I got a set for my Z (15x7) and
couldn't have been happier with the price and service and performance of
the wheels.
