      I've got those in 15x8 left over from my MR2 project, waiting for xmas money so I can get proper centering spacers made.
      Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

        15x7 Rota's Grids is what they were I think. Several sets lasted many seasons on the SM.

          Those are Rota RB's, an imitation of the great Watanabe RB's

          My bad, they aren't RB's, they are the RS's
          I was thinking of Rota's RB

            Forgot what they are called, thanks for the correction. I believe that they are knockoffs of Panasports, which is what Watanabe knocked off.

              I guess none of you guys are old enough to know that ALL the wheels that look like that are copies of a wheel made in england called minilight. They were created about 1960.

                since we're on the minilite/panasport's I'll also throw out konig rewinds as an attractive reasonably light 15x7 (about 15lbs, IIRC). They are also quite cheap if you're a NASA member (they have a discount/sponsorship program)...

                  I'd like to see more of the 6ULs in 15x9. When the hell is Emilio coming out with the XTR?

                      finally the truth is spoken....

                      Minilites...the real wheel. Everything else is a copy.

                      Panasports and Comp MLs are nice copies.
                      I love sitting down and just driving!

                        I remember Minilites from back in the day, we used to rally a 64 Mini cooper S and the wheels were made of magnesium (or an alloy of) and they would literally erode away over time....they had a "use by date" cast on the inside. this is why when the company folded they became as rare as rocking horse crap and very hard to source.
                        I think a new company is re-making them again with the old moulds, but using a more modern alloy

                          I have the 15x7.5 6UL's


                          I want to get them in 15x8 or 15x9 if they would fit.
