panasport question...real vs. knock-offs..

Minilite is the original. When they went out of businessin the late 70s, their classic design was fair game for what I've been told is nearly forty brands of "knockoffs."

Here's an earlier thread with Orange Julius after his Minilite Sport (doublefins) 5" x 13" wheels were installed two summers ago.

Here's a big discussion on this very topic over on the miata forum. There are many options, and miata guys are very picky. Miatas also have the same bolt pattern, but like a ~40 offset.
