HELP! Are these Eclipse wheels real? 17 in and new.

[Maxthepersonz]

I found a set of wheels for sale. The guy won them at MOD (Mitsubishi Owners Day) at the factory and I need to know if they are real wheels or replicas. Are they worth $250? I don't like the idea of buying low quality stuff so let me know asap. Thanks everyone.

Yeah they are real looks like mine

 

[spyderdrifter]

They do look like the real 3-piece wheels (or 2-piece, I forget which).

 

[Maxthepersonz]

Thanks for the imput guys! I couldn't find much out there about replica wheels this still so I figured they were real. Anyone else feel free to chime in. They guy wants $250 for the entire set so I'm going to scoop them!

Nice, I've always liked the way those look

Definitely real, its the two piece with polished lip. I don't know about those center caps though.

At least they come with center caps. The ones I won from MOD years back did not.

 

[Tiki2777]

Definitely worth it, I just bent one of my original 17s on my GSX

Those center caps look weird imo. but theyre defiantly real and 250 is a good price.

What years would those wheels have come on, they have a nice look?

 

[Dxc545]

97-99 gsx. The 3g eclipse's had them too but they were a cheaper 1 piece and might have had a different offset

Mod last august they raffled the wheels off again, they also had tubs and tubs of these center caps, you could take as many as you wanted.

OP these are real wheels that someone won from Factory MOD last fall. The hubcaps are hubcaps from a galant I believe.

Sweet well I am happy that someone was there to actually see these get won by somebody. Now I know for sure they're real. My Spyder is gonna be happy with these on it. Thanks again for everyone's input. I'll post some pics once they're mounted up!

Now I just gotta get some coilovers next pay check..

 

[Turbogsxr1100]

Those wheels look nice man well worth the money for sure!

That's the problem with them they bend very easily.

$250, eh? I recall trying to deal with someone a while ago who won two sets of these but wanted a much higher price, plus shipping, and was unwilling to budge...which seemed ridiculous considering I was a serious buyer and they had $0 invested.

Glad reality finally set in.

 

[Doubleot]

I remember him ^

Sweet deal at 250$

 

[JusMX141]

For sure. I'd buy both sets at that price per...AND pay shipping.

 

[4g63t]

I would jump all over that op, good deal! 360 +s&h for that same part #.

I still wish I had mine, they finally got so bent from Michigan roads I had to scrap them. They looked awesome on a 2gb eclipse.

 

[gnarkill6x6]

I seen the guy post a while ago when he won them at mod.

Yup, , i live about 45 minutes away and made an offer that was about what the OP is looking to pay. Was shut down. Guy was firm and he had TWO sets he won from mod. I guess he got rid of them though, theyre no longer on the local craigslist.
Anyway, ive always wanted a set of stock 17s like that. They look good on any color dsm

 

[GofaST4life]

Nice and clean.

But damn, that width is a killer.

Width? It's a stock 2g gsx rim... How is it a killer

 

[Maxthepersonz]

Lol he doesn't know I don't think...
