Mitsu 3000GT Rims

[Laser93Nash]

Looking at buying some Mitsu 3000gt rims off ebay. They're 16x8. They come with tires. Would these fit? Tire rack says 3000gt has a 5 114.3 bolt pattern and 93 laser rs has 5 114.3 bolt pattern. So I'm guess they would work. Here's the link to the rims

yes they will fit

They will fit, but they are also heavy, and the N/T motor won't like that

 

[Laser93Nash]

How heavy are they? How bad would they hurt the performance of my car??

not really, most wheel/tire combos are about 50 lbs for our cars, go weigh yours

it would still hurt our pefomance really bad, you shouldn't go over 15s on N/T
all show no go

That is untrue. My 18" chrome 3000GT wheels with tires weigh in at 52lbs. My Snow tires(stock 16s 3000GT with Blizzaks) weigh in at 47lbs. The Blizzaks are heavy also. I think with 205/55/16s the combo would be 43lbs, or less.

205/55/16s generally weigh 3-5lbs less than 225/55/16

There are NA eclipses with 16s... so I dont think its going to be a problem

personally i think those rims are hella ugly, but its up to you. checo out my gallery for some 2g wheels on a 1g talon

Doh, you shouldnt post the link. The more people know about it, the more they could bid against you

I like the wheels 3000GT wheels on the eclipse, it looks bad on the 3000, cause the 3000 is a bigger car. The eclipse is smaller and uses lower profile tires.

They'll fit, but aren't nearly as sweet as the chrome VR4 rims

Oh, if you are wondering, I dont have 18s on my Eclipse. I have a 3000GT also, which is where my 18s are =)

 

[Laser93Nash]

I don't care if other people bid. My dads being an asshole right now. So I can't get them anyways. I'm thinking about saving my money and getting a pair of 2g 16x6 rims and tires. I dunno though.
