Default latest model mr2 wheels on a honda, anybody have pics?

One of my friends locally got a set of these and had to bore the center a small amount to make them fit. I'm considering buying them off of him. I'm not sure how they'll look though, anybody have any pics of them on a honda(specifically a del sol)?

those rims are staggered also. I forget the exact spec, but 15x6 and 15x6.5 i think. just make sure you put the same rims on the same axel even if u do use the same tire all around

ok, thanks for the info... Is there any benefit to putting the wider ones on the front or rear? I'd imagine wider on the front would be better, but I'm open to suggestions

I was thinking the same thing about the MR2 rims but didnt know you needed to bore them out. they remind me of S2000 rims but skinnier.

GSR sunflowers are hideous. Have you thought of Lancer OZ rims?

Save yourself some money, clean the OEM GER wheels you got and slap some tires on there.

the thing is, i can get those mr2 wheels for 275. 3 of the sunflowers have tires, but at least 1 of them is completely shot and the others aren't far behind. So by getting these mr2 wheels, i may be saving myself some money and just sell the sunflowers...time will tell

OZ lancer rims are 4x144.3 if i remember correct, so they won't fit his car unless he gets that useless conversion.

for the op, i would put the wider rim in front. You may use the same tire all around, 195 or 205, but the extra width will reduce the sidewall flex just a little bit.

I had those MRS wheels on my hatch for a little while.

They require special lug nuts. And two of the wheels don't fit properly around the center hub, causing them to wiggle. I broke 3 lug nuts in a matter of weeks.
