Go to Team 3 Wheels...team3wheels.com They make a nice looking GT40 type wheel. 15"-17" pretty much any back space you want. I thought about buying these wheels, but with this great economy and being unemployed its just not a good time to spend the $$$$$!

Those purists might also say it's not a 'real' GT40. So who the hell cares.
That's one amazing car you have there.
I've always liked the GT40 BRM wheels too, and think they'd look great on a
Pantera, but I think the offsets are wrong:

I have the 'Halibrands' from Vintage Wheel on my GT40....

Some purists will say that they are not 'real' GT40 wheels though... they are
missing the 'wine glass stem' and they are 17" and.... well, you get the idea.
:-)
Personally, I like them purely because I can get decent tires for the street.
When I take it to the track next month, I plan on using the 15" wheels with
track tires/slicks.
FWIW,
Kirby
