Wheel showcase?

I'm wondering if there are any good side pics of roadster with different wheels and sizes..
I want to compare different sized Panasports mainly, but also see what different wheels are out there.
Thanks!

Yeah, Alvin took pics last year or before (forget where) that profile 3 roadsters running 14, 15, and 16-inch Panasports. Search the forum...
As for other wheels, I don't know of a specific Wheel Showcase although it's not a bad idea (whadday think, Steve? Have people submit side shots of their cars to add to the Wheels tech info?).
For now, you could go through the pics in the Roadster Registry. Not the quickest method, but....

Yes, I am up for that. Any takers? There are a few pics in the wheel tech section on the main website. Only one of panasports though.

If you do not mind-send them to me and I will create a page to add to the main web site.

Found Alvin's pic..very nice!
I love the look of the 16s, but I really don't want to have to worry about clearing the wheel wells. 15's will do nicely! I think it'll look good with the front lowered a bit.

Since clearance issues and offsets between a roadster and a 510 seem to be very similar, you might try here:

With correct tire sizing, there's not much difference between 15s and 16s. My 205/40-16s don't rub any more or less than my old 205/50-15s.

I know just enough about computers to know I can't do this, but someone on this forum can. What about taking the HTML/Shockwave animations from a wheel preview program like
http://www.discounttiredirect.com
and inserting properly sized Datsun images?
Probably not easy, but it would be very cool.
