TR6 TR6 wheel opinions

I'm shopping for alloy wheels (15x6) for my '76 TR6. Under consideration are Minilites, Panasports and Superlites. I like the fact that Minilites are the originals. I like the Panasports because they have been around so long, I think they would be the best bet if I ever had to replace one (Minilite seems to have been in and out of business over the years, will they be there if I dent one in a pothole 2 yrs. from now?). I like Superlite because a set is $200-$300 less than the others.

Is there anything else I should consider? What are your opinions and experiences?

Thanks.
 
Konig Rewinds from Discount Tire.

Falken tires from the same.

But I went with the 16X7 with 205/60/16 and they were cheaper that the 205/15 on 15X6 wheels. Go figure???
 
I don't have any first and experience with any of your choices, but several members of our Triumph club have the Panasports, and many others have the Superlites. The trend has been toward the Superlites. Most likely because of price. I've seen both, and the Superlites look like a well made wheel and all of the owner's of them are very happy with their choice.
 
The Panasports look better,but the Super's are cheaper. And I have the later.
 
Panasports are smooth. What can I say. They look so good....


Plus, you only see Pans on the race ciruit. They are pretty much bullet-proof.
