They pretty much look exactly like the Motegi MR7's except they are cheap as hell! $262.00 plus shipping brand new.

I always see the mr7's in the summit catalogs and i think they look hot as hell. but they are like $140 a pop plus shipping... I'll take knock offs i dont care lol

does anyone have a picture of the mr7's on an eclipse?

ya those look nice but in my opinion they should be used on a white eclipse maybe black.

the mr7's, while they do look real nice, are one of the most played out wheels for the eclipse. look at the gallery in dsmtuners and it shouldnt be too hard to find an eclipse with those wheels on.

im not a big fan of the "rivets" in the rims, but for the price its good. But then again- do what you like. Some will love, others will hate. Do what you like- its your car...

i have a white eclipse, im doing white on white.

I read the post, there are like a thousand people that think white on white is stupid, but thats what i like.

I had no idea that everyone has those rims.... ive just always liked them ever since i started getting summit catalogs like 2 years ago.

Thanks for the positive re-enforcement, i dont know if im still gonna get them but i thought it was a killer deal.

i wanted mr7's for the longest time but i started seeing one eclipse after another that had them and i like to be somewhat original so i started looking for other rims. if they are what you like tho, go for them. dont let other peoples opinions influence all that you do to your car. i mean dont get me wrong, positive reinforcement is always good but its more important that you like the car for what you made it into, not what someone else told you to do.

I dont think they look like mr-7 at all. They are ok though.

hiphop... did you ever sell those white rims that you had a while back? what kind were those?

I think something with a different colored lip would look better on a white car. All that white is a little too much for me.

Yeah...that fake "3 piece" look is fucking gay. MR7's or bust.

Edit: Here is a pic of my old car with the gunmetal MR7's (17x7) before I sold them to run4cvr. You can PM if you would like to see his car with them on currently.

81564, can anyone photoshop that?
Posted by ajcfalcon, Feb-14-05 10:38 AM

Thats too bad....

I dont think they are universal because he said he has the 4 lug and the 5 lug bolt patterns..

No. They are 5 hole. Multiple pattern 5 hole. 5X 100 and 5X114.3. the 5x 114.3 is the hole pattern we use. there is no 4 hole in that same rim. lol.

Ya, i always wanted tantrums on my ride, so my seconds pair of rims, I got em.

Konig Tantrums = MR7's same sh*t

Now It's done and over with, I want to change rims. The ones you posted look decent. If anything, but them and if you don't like em, you could always sell em for more, I'm sure somebody will like em and it's not like we have a rare bolt pattern so it has to go on another DSM. g'luck

I agree, I don't like the rivets or the multi-fit look. also the center cap looks like it should of been painted at some point
