    Either some OEM mesh wheel or a BBS knockoff, they look OEM though, I I've seen Evo 7/8/9's with a mesh style factory wheel similar or identical to these, but that was overseas, I'm going with OEM mitsu wheels for my guess. What are they?

    ^I thought that too for a while, but these look like 17 x 8's and the finish and spoke pattern is different on the X.

    Judging by the Mitsubishi emblem I'd say they are OEM EVO wheels., nice pickup!

    I have question I went and got them mounted and balanced friday...before I put them on they had sticky weights on the inside 2 sets one on the inside closes to the car(theres a groove and its flat you can see it in the pictures) and one closest to the mesh...well when he balanced and I noticed he only put on a set of weights ON the groove closest to the car instead of the flat portion and no weight by the mesh...I have a feeling he balanced them wrong.... steering wheel is oscilating at 45 and up....vibrations/oscillating noise from the front end.. is my feeling right I find it strange he only put one set of weights ?
