    wobble bolts were specifically made for Alfa and Fiat cars to run 4x100 and 5x100 wheels (as they were 4x98 and 5x98 mostly.

    it wasn't until recently that someone tried 5x112 to 5x114.3 with wobble bolts

    They're not exactly functional turbo wheels, but there have been some borderline ones posted already, plus I just bought a set.

    I found my copy of the X-1 and the Millen Panasport 3 piece way back in the early 90s. It was linked from the old Club4AG site to this random japanese site.

    I had two pictures of the Millen Panasports but could only recover one (which may actually be an early 'photoshop' of sorts for use in an advertisement. the tell tale sign being the G7 centercaps, which is another Panasport wheel from around that time)

    if someone can find me a shot of the X-1s or Panasports, I'd appreciate it
    doing searches now on these wheels points me either back to this thread, my site or one of my backup galleries...

    Qualifies in this case I believe.


    I dislike most Turbo wheels, but the more I see them in the right application they sure do look "right".
