Dear Amici,
    Would be grateful for any advice on my new wheels of  fortune. I
hope to order some Panasports from Paul Spruell soon.

1) The current wheels on my TR3 are 5" wide with 3.75" backset ( inner
edge of the very outside of the rim to the mounting surface). Tires are
5.50x15 Hoosier TD.
2) The new wheels are available in 6" width.
    a) Anyone using  6" rims? Any concerns/suggestions?
    b) Any suggestions on dimensions for machining the backset for 6"
rims?

    Thanks in advance for any comments!
