Z06 Pantera's new shoes (Pictures Added)

Beautiful! What brand are the wheels? Sizes, Back spacing?

Let's see a pic of them on the car.

They are custom made Asanti wheels. The backs are 19x12 with about a 6.5" backspace. The fronts are 18x8.5 with about a 4.75" backspace. The offset is almost exactly 0. (ie: 50% in and 50%out)

I put Michelin PS2's on it with 345-30-19 and 245-35-18.

I guess no one likes the new look. The pictures don't do it justice. The wheels are like Jewels in the way they sparkle.

And my goodness, the traction is unbelievable. It's like I just added another 50HP. Nice not having as much wheel spin!

They look well coordinated with your colors. The wheels, stripes and dark tint really look good on your car.....

Looks good. That is a big tire under flat sided car!

Big Thumbs Up!

I think it's a great look. Same size rears as I have on my car. You may find it to be a little more prone to understeer . I have 265s on the front and have lowered the car a bit but have flares. Can't recall how the back space compares. Looks like the rears are approximately at the outside edge of the rear fender lip. Is that the case? Hows the clearance at full lock on front?

Nice look,
Kelly

Those wheels look Bangin'!

I love the black wheels on the white and black livery on your Pantera. You must be thrilled, they are an excellent choice! Are you happy with the backspacing?

I am, although I think I could have moved the backs in maybe another 1/4 inch.

On the front I am going to go down to 225-35-18 instead of the 245-35-18 as they do rub just a little. I test fit the 245's but didn't consider body roll in the corners.

Hey Scott. Its funny that you recreate the totally 'original' seat covers for the Pantera (I still love mine) but enjoy modding your own car. Personalizaton makes these cars fun.

Anyway, the wheels aren't to my taste since I lean toward that original side, but glad you like 'em. That's all that matters!

All I can say is SWEET!!!!!!!!!!

Same tires as many of us have - but those are super nice wheels! Looks awesome.
