Default Mugen experts...help

I have seen Mugen MF10's in GM with a polished lip before. I check Kingmotorsports but they didn't have them. Does MUGEN really make them or are the ones I saw knock offs....can someone show me a site with them or have a good picture with them on a ITR? Thanks

They may have been repainted ones.

They don't come in gunmetal.

These are the only rims that Mugen makes that are close to GM.

mugen makes quite a few different styles of the mf-10

the 16x7 comes in titanium, and silver +43,+50 (bronze discontinued)

you can get a 17x7 +48 in ploished with gunmetal accents but is not hubcentric (for s2000)

only other mf10 is the mf10l which is 4 lug and white...not for our type R

gunmetal MF-10s
I would have gotten those for my R if they had them 1 yr ago. If I did have them on, I probably wouldnt have sold it.

those volks kinda looks like BBS style... and it sure is P.I.M.P ing.

I'd love to get some mugen mf10 in bronze.. those are the best color for CW R's IMO..

the bronze mugens are trademark, and if only used ones will be available now, then their value i am guessing would stay steady...beautiful wheels

I think these would look better on a Supra or something... not a Honda/Acura.

But whatever, they're pimp.

Ummm how did you get them in gunmetal?? Was that a special order from KING?
Just looking at my Mugen Power 2002 catolog from Japan and no offer in gunmetal??

The GTU looks like a modern Volk III or Se37A in a two piece form. (Both split 9-spoke!)
Their first two piece from VOLK in a split 10 spoke?? Not that light, go forged monoblock!!

Saw a mistsubishi eclipse with 18" gunmetal GTU in myrtle Beach SC, one month ago!! Not even a GS-T...WHY??? Showboyz!

the rims are not discontinued--I just recieved a e-mail return from kingmotosports, they said it was just a rumor on this forum... pretty reliable source, I say.
