I bought the Panasport Wheels (15"x 6") silver finish from K-Speed for $179
per, $8 for four lug nuts for each wheel, and $35 shipping for the set. 
Wheels are in stock and will be shipped on Monday.  Chuck at K Speed was
easy to deal with and was very helpful.

Got a quote of $195 from Panasport Racing Wheels in Torrance CA and $30
shipping.  I do not know if the $195 includes the lug nuts.  Checked with
TRF and they were a bit higher even with their sale,  I am not sure if the
$875 included shipping.  Since I am not a club member I could not get a
further discount.

 My thanks for advice from: Shane Ingate, Roger (rgb@exac.tcom),  and Vic.
Whitmore.  I looked hard the KN Minator wheels, but the price on the
Panasports was to good to pass up for a few extra dollars.  I've seen the
KN wheels and they look great and since I dont race, they would have done
me just fine.

I will be buying TR6 emblems and placing them in the hub caps.

I should be getting the wheels in about a week.  After that, I will be
looking for new tires, probably the 205-75, they are about the same size as
the original 185 red lines.  The springs on the TR are cut so as to lower
the car, the 185s  fill the wheel well just about right, therefore the
205-75 will be ok..

thanks again for the help,

Martin Gonzales, 
73 TR6
