[DeTomaso] Pantera GT5S *seventeen* inch wheels

It took me a while to figure out what you were talking about - looks like I
accidentally included an extra photo at no extra cost.

   It took me a while to figure out what you were talking about - looks
   like I accidentally included an extra photo at no extra cost.

     Yes, it was Gotti (which is a French company)
     They may be a distributor, or a retailer, but I was happy to see
     that there are fresh tires out there, and if need be I could buy new
     tires. Hereas a photo a calling it the Holy Grail may be a little
     strong, but Iad be happy to find more!
