4x100 and yes they do look like the panasports, thats why I wanted them. I like a lot of the rota wheels I dont know why ppl dont like them maybe there old news & over used? Worked for me!

The front is 2002 civic si hubs & coilovers. The rear I still need to do the 4/100 disc,I have been looking but nothing yet.
The car will be ez ,I just want to do the early bumpers and take off the rear side lite. The roof rails will also go and then paint it the same color.

FYI I built the tube frame and control arms on my white 1200 for less than 300 in materials and a days work... mind its made to hold an eb not a K, but for the budget minded it can be done well and reasonable. I did the welding myself but with todays economy - welders are looking for side jobs too![/quote]
Yeah its not a lot in pipe thats for sure its the labor that so much. I am starting a RWD 1st gen and will have about $300 in materials ,and the welding will be done inhouse so you are right its realy not much if you can do it your self. As for bump steer its looking good.

I am going to use a rim that looks like the old panasport wheels but they are 4/100 and a little deeper.

I am using 02 civic si front hubs(4/100)and coilovers. On the rear is 86 prelude disc and I am still working on that strut/coilover set up.
