    Info on Rod Millen Panasports

    This set of Panasport GS101560's came with my new to me BF 323 gtx. They look like what came on the 5 lug rally cars and the 4 lug RMM Escorts except these are 15x6's. Any info on what car these were originally for would be appreciated or just any info on them in general. I've tried looking up the part number but have come up pretty empty handed. Thanks all.

    They weren't OE on anything iirc. It doesn't surprise me that he woulda had some made that fit your car since he used to rally a number of mazda with that bolt pattern like 1stgen rx7 and 323gtx... I stil have a set of these. Nice stuff.

                The 1st Gen RX-7 GSL-SE had the same bolt pattern as the BFs.

                    First Gen (non gsl-se, those are 4x114.3) is 4x110. Your Escort likely has a 4x100. Not sure what wheels you are running on it but no RX7 ever came factory with 4x100 wheels.

                    Some of the older fords had 4x108, and I know some guys that think you force the 4x110 lug pattern wheels on. Definitely not recommended though!
