I would imagine those would fit given you don't slam the thing to the ground. I think Miguel_DSM (if you are not subcribed to his yt channel you are missing out) swapped out some wheels from his evo, but I might be wrong.

Yup! Thanks!! Just found out thru fitment industries. Researched thru their site and saw that it has the same specs and offsets. Yeah I follow Miguel also. Cool! Thanks for the reply!! Yeah not slamming it to the ground .

Oh wow! That’s pretty cool that you live near FI. Yeah after seeing his build. I’d want to Evo swap mine too oo. But def would be a harder build from auto to manual . wonder if that’s been done before?

It might be possible, idk why it wouldn't. It would take some fabrication, you are already gutting the car and relocating a tranny mount so..... I'm hoping to buy an rs or gs soon so I can start the swap, but we all know plans never go according to how we want them to.....especially for a dsm

I have evo 10 wheels on my 97 gsx. Fits great just need coilovers so I can lower it a bit.

The EVO 8 Enkei wheels are literally the top 3 most common wheel swaps on a 1G/2G. They are actually quite light for their size (17x8"), and have enough offset (+38) to allow you to run Brembo or 3kGT calipers. They also allow you to run a 225/45 or 225/50 tire which in my opinion is one of the more balanced options as far as tires go.

They fit great. I'm just not a fan of the stock color. I repainted mine .

Evo 8 Enkeis on a 2G are excellent. I highly recommend you go that route. I run 245/40s on mine and they fit perfect. And as mentioned above, they clear the 3KGT front calipers perfectly.

Thanks! They actually came like that on my 1G when I bought it. So for any 1G guys viewing this thread, the Evo 8s fit your car just as well.

Hey guys, fairly new to the DSM community. Recently got a 97 Eclipse automatic (unfortunately ) last summer. I was wondering if the evo8 stock Enkei rims would fit on the eclipse? Has anyone ever swapped those out? Thanks for reading!

my wheel specs are 18x7.5 +40 with the tires being 225/40/18

my brothers are 17x9+40 with the tires being 245/45/17
