The Flix on the red car look awsome. The car looks like a MC40 without the stickers!
How do you guys think those anthracite Flix would look on an all Black MCS?

Colored wheels
Does anyone have the Panasport FS-16's in color? They look so cool in yellow, but I have never seen them except in this web page:

What colors do they come in besides, yellow, blue, and I assume white?

I have the po' man's ssr's.
They are very much like the ssr's, but they are labeled "HSR"s. I think it means "Here's Some Replica's"!!!
The springs are H&R's...again po' man's lowering. I wish I had coilovers, but first I gotta turn some coinover!

Panasports on Order
As a follow-up to JoeDentist, above. I have a set of FS-16 Panasports on order with gunmetal gray powder-coated spokes and a polished rim. I felt the color gave the wheels a little more depth and interest and I love the traditional Minilite-like look. The coating adds to the price and to the delivery time as they make them in Japan in batches when they have enough orders. I am told to expect as long as 3 months. I will post photos when they are installed. I am switching from my 17-inch S-lites to the 16-inch in hopes of softening the ride a bit. Not that I can't take the harsh ride mind you (snort, spit).
I ordered them through Dave Turner Motorsports in San Diego so I can pick them up and avoid the shipping hassles.
I will be selling my S-lites which are chromed. Anyone want to "Pimp their ride?"

So after seeing pics of Flik Wasps in this thread I picked up some of my own. I am getting them mounted this weekend. They were shipped to me without tires ( I have yoko es 100 215/45). I thought it would be fun to throw them on the scale. Guess what....
My scale says the 17x7 Flik Wasp weighs 20lbs! I thought they were 19 lbs.
Now I realize my scale could be wrong, but it is one of those expensive digital scales. I tried it many times.
Has anybody else weighed these rims?

Chrome S-Lites
Here is a photo of the S-lites that were on the car when I bought it used. They will be for sale when my Panasport FS-16 wheels arrive.
