>>>Lots of Panteras have been equipped with wheels from this company over 
the years.   I had one for a long time, but I didn't like the fact that the 
hub is so huge, so I later upgraded to a Momo wheel/hub.   Lori really likes 
the four-spoke Lecarra in her car though.   The car came to her with a 'big 
man' 13-inch wheel, which she wisely replaced with a 14-inch model as she's 
only 5 foot 4.   So she has a 13-inch wheel available for sale if anybody is 
looking.

Lecarra no longer manufactures a hub to fit the Pantera, so all the Pantera 
vendors have stopped carrying their wheels, sadly...:<(
