Mitsubishi Eclipse Mitsubishi Evo Dsm Mitsubishi 3000gt vr4 - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Have to keep in mind the 1st gen 3000gt has a very odd caliper setup on the front. It is very hard to find wheels that will fit the caliper as it is very close to the center. It has nothing to do with offset and everything to do with the shape of the wheel. Most 1st gen 3000gt will replace their calipers from a 2nd or 3rd gen so that it is easier to find wheels. The 2nd and 3rd gen have brake calipers that are much further from the center of the hub, making it much easier to find wheels that fit.
I didn’t know that. Thanks for the info!
@@MiguelDsm for sure! Us 1st gen guys hate it! Currently looking to source some later gen brakes or swap over to EVO brakes to be able to fit more wheels.
Thanks for the info, as I've been trying to remember if this was something I could do in order to get wheels to fit my 1g.
I don't know why someone doesn't just make "adapters" that simply extend the 1g calipers further from center and then all you would have to do is run 2g rotors. I mean, thats all they did with the 2g calipers anyways lol.
@@topnotchtsi I think it could be done, I could definitely work something up and use my 3D print farm to prototype it out. However, I would need to have a set of 2nd gen calipers and rotors to bolt up and take the measurements. I have a 1st gen VR4.
Love the videos man! 1G VR4 here, running Konig Hypergrams 18x9.5 +25, had to run some front camber to not have any poke but they fit great!
Epicness ❤️ love this!
yesss this is much needed, much love 🙏
Glad to help 🤘🏼
Let's go another banger video
Yessir!
I appreciate the video bro. I’m still rocking the 17” chrome wheels on my 94 Vr4. I’m stuck between Hypergrams or rpf1s. I want to get 18x9 or 9.5 for a flush Fitment.
No entiendo inglés pero aquí estoy por qué te sigo en ambos canales👍
Hey man nice video! You're video so helpful!!
I have a 1g vr4 I want to buy a set of cosmis s5r but I don't know what fitment would be perfect between
18x9+26
Or
18×10.5+20
It's make me feel anxious ahahah
3000gt obviously one of my favorite cars. Miguel have you ever heard of the intercooler blocking the cooling ability of the radiator? Have you ever had any problems?
You make me want a 3000gt , but I’d prefer the pop up headlight version . Nice cars btw , can’t wait till you get ur clutch fixed on the evo lol
I preferred the first generation as well initially. Evo will be taken apart, hopefully soon
Such amazing cars! 4g63 swap one for sure!
Hell yeah thank you bro
You got it!
I lowkey want a 3K 😭Hopefully I find one. Great video as always bro🔥
Do it before they get harder to find
Dodge stealth here thanks for the wheel fit meant guide
When I had my 2000 mustang with 95 year cobra wheels I got board and took them off and put them on my 3000gt and they fit and looked way nice but I sold the mustang with the wheels and always think about getting another set and putting them on my 3G.
what is a good place to get wheels? or car parts in general
I’ve been doing copious amounts of research. And everything I’ve found, is telling by me that your 18 X 10.5 +30 with 275 tires should be too wide lol.
Do you mind sharing what camber you are running?
I’m looking into 18x10 +35
I feel like those should fit if you’re fitting 10.5 wide
Hey Miguel do you think I will have to rub and going to have to roll the fenders with 18x9.5 30 tire 245/30R18?
Are these cars on any type of suspension upgrades like Coils or lowering springs? Or are these all perfect fit on stock height
Nice builds. Currently have a 94 3000gt base and looking for some wheels that will fit my car but I have zero clue what fits. I know my stock tires are 225 55r16.. but when I search wheels, options are like "18x8 +45mm off set" or like "17x8.5 +38mm offset" and I'm just like "???" LOL. anyone have suggestions ? tryna to keep mostly everything stock, I wouldn't mind changing tires if i need to but like the whole wheel size and the offset is so confusing to me.
hey miguel do u know where i can get my ecm repaired?
Where can i find a lip like the one black mamba vr4 has
Will the last wheel specs work on a base 98 3000gt
Yeah I'm a little biased towards Mitsubishi as well. Lol I love a red colord VR4.
Goat
Can you run 7.5 on an SL?
other than enkei, anyone know of 18x10.5 +30???
Man, thank you for this video. I just got 17 inch wheels for my ‘94 VR-4 and they didn’t clear the front brake calipers. I wasn’t able to test fit (parked outside, rainy day) and the shop I took it to tried to mount without testing them. They damaged the wheels and now I can’t return them 😭. I felt so defeated since this is my first sports car and my first set of wheels. Gonna work on selling these wheels before I look at another set
Sorry to hear about your experience. Hopefully you’re able to get some proper specs now 🤘🏼
@@MiguelDsm Let's hope so. Keep up the 3000GT videos! I'm enjoying them
My wife is the same way bro! 😅🤣😂
EVO X MR wheels for the win
7:45 In order to have the closest outside diameter he needed to run 285/30 in the back not 275. 275/30 are 0.99% smaller, and 1% is a LOT. a 285/30 is 0.08% smaller, that is pretty much as identical OD as possible.
The problem with 3/S wheels is that they need the lower offset usually unless you're going super wide. That's why mustang wheels are common budget options. Back in the day those saleen reps were super common, I wanna say they had a +20mm offset.
That being said the conquest/starion SHP rears are +0mm
It’s good insight to have to avoid buying anything with a high offset and having to run spacers
Also the reason why this is a problem is because if you look at the landscape, fwd or fwd based vehicles (aka most japanese vehicles) tend to have large offsets while rwd vehicles (german/usa mostly) tend to have low offset wheels. This is because structurally a 0 offset is ideal for the wheel (not the knuckle or hub but that's a different story) and packaging wise if you have a transverse engine the suspension gets pushed outboard more. Japanese manufacturers tend to stick to high offset when they make rwd cars now adays because they're just pulling stuff off the shelf. What that means is wheels from japanese aftermarket wheel suppliers like gram light tend to not make low offset wheels. And euro suppliers tend to not be 5x114.3.
The best one is the one with the pup up head lights .
Shit gets real now
good information... your GF is hilarious! lol
im running 20inch 285x tyres
I ran 19x9 +35 with 275/35 tires on front and I had to roll the fenders. On the rears, You can run very wide tires. Maybe even 12" wheels. but offset should be high.
I agree on the rears have so much space. My wheels tuck a good inch
I love the 1st gen more the the other ones
Do one for the Evo community, I’m indecisive between the enki rpf1 or rays gramlights but thinking of going rpf1 what fitment should I go with ?
Got that one coming soon as well 👌🏼 it’s harder to fit brembos on the rpf1s. 18x9.5+15 but it’s extremely aggressive
@@MiguelDsm gracias Miguel can’t wait to see the video. I support your English and Spanish channel been watching you since you swapped your Evo trans back in 2020
I have a set of 18x8.5" rpf1s on my other 1g vr4 with 265 Michelin on it and they still weigh 50lbs each. The chrome 17" boat anchors that came off (with 245s) weighed 52lbs each.
Wide tires come with a serious weight penalty, not ti mention getting assessed points by scca if you're running HPDE.
100% not worth it unless you just want style points.
Yup. Enkei wheels by default are known for being lightweight. Didn’t know they ranged in the 40+ w/ tires
@@MiguelDsm my other 1g vr4 (I have 2, both silver) has evo 10 brakes and a set of Drag brand knockoff wheels (came with the car) actually fit over the 1g brakes AND the evo X brakes. The rpf1s did NOT fit the 10 brakes (2 piece rotors) by at least 5mm, so they went on the other car.
Also: they weigh 46lbs with 255 Falken rt615K tires.
8lbs x4 wheels is significant. Carbon fiber driveshaft on top of that is SIGNIFICANT. The 2 piece 14" rotors weigh something like 3lbs less than the 11.7" 1g vr4 rotors. The car FEELS light now 😁
My dude start showing them together dsm and 3kgt
Nemesis carbon 👌🏽.
Do this for the eclipse 😫😫
Her comments is so fire xD haha
Wow
😎👍
Saludos mi bro 💪🏻
Lmaoo your gf's comments 🤣

Fr GF's always saying the most for so long and you can never rush the conversation.
It be like that.. lol
Liked for hotboi specs 🤣

Back in the day rears we’re 10 fronts were8.5 at 19inch. Bent them in weeks……. Northeast roads suck
