 Clif,

I have a set of Panasports on the Jensen. If you use some Toyo Proxie RA1s (non shaved, we shave them for racing) they will work wonderfully on the street and give you awesome grip. More so than any other tire that has been discussed here.

I know there is a Panasport knock off wheel called The Rewind that a lot of racers are using. You can find them on Ebay often and they just might make them in the correct pattern. I've not looked, but it might be worth your time.

And, if you get the right tire guy you can put a 225-50-13 Toyo or Hoosier on the stock JH wheel and it looks really wicked. It is safe, but you'll need a good tire guy or a race tire guy that is used to doing such stuff.  It is extremely hard to put that tire on, or off, the stock wheel width but it can be done.
