They look very similar to the Rota Attacks!
However, the FN01R's are too curved on the inside. There is a big difference there.

I am not a 'hater'...dont be so juvenile. :rolleyes:

In truth...you gave/traded away the most expensive and best wheels you had for crap...if you were
slightly more patient and mature you could have swapped them for some really nice wheels
instead of store brand rimz....thats all. :)
Might be something to remember in the future. Its not 'hating' to get your $$ worth...its smart.

I agree with Kurt. Live and learn though. As long as you're happy with what you have now though, you're good.

ughhh see peep are all about price..price price price.and name brand...... the panasports are no better then these... they wigh the same...I THINK the were boring and not a nice looking and every other miata out there has wheels that look just like them but in a difff color or have the same ones.....i was not liking the panasports...thats just me..maybe not...i dont car about the "name brand" shiit..its just over priced..i looked at a TON of wheels i could have got...i liked these the best even over the 5zigan ones........


i mean you do have the gold rotas on you car the looked like the panna sports/mini knock offs

Yes I bought gold Rotas...because they come in the style, offset, color, and pricepoint I was interested in. I didnt trade a set of $1500 wheels for them. I am not retarded! :lol:
Panasports are a 'knockoff' of Minilites BTW.

Regardless, your mumbo jumbo rationalization has nothing to do with getting your $$ worth....which you did not.
If you want cheap *** wheels thats fine...I like cheap wheels too. They do have their place.
The thing is, you could have gotten some cheapies and had $ left over for other things....which should seem important to some one whos is pretty much brokeass....and smart even to those who are not.

I am not a brand *****. If you think I am you know nothing about me.

lol...i know wut your saying..but all in all i didnt lose a penny money wise...i didnt pay for the panas and yes i know i could have made money off them on ebay easy!!!!...i know all of this..but in the long run i just wanted something i liked....soo..thats wut i did....

and now i have something i like.............


for now:D

While I did like the Panasports the best of the 3 sets of rims you've had so far, it's definitely your prerogative to do what you want. In the end, you're the one who has to live with your decisions. So if they make you happy, cool. I still dig the MBs, and I think they're a better option than the 0 offset sportmax's.

IMO, brandwhores are dumb. Or rich. Or rich AND dumb.

i think you should have got your moneys worth out of the panasports, but i think the current wheel looks better than any of the others put together.

now do a track day.

What's funny is I carry a box of wheel studs for Miatas in my trunk. (I keep a whole emergency part and tool kit with hoses, clamps, wrenches, etc. lol) Never know when you'll need something like that, and I've been able to help a couple other Miata owners too.

Have you weighed these wheels? You should have Greg weigh your old ones to see the comparison.
