So, I got luck and my friend knew someone selling winter steelies and tires with about 500 miles on them for $250. I jumped on it not even thinking because that was under half what I would spend to put winter tires on the extra 17" rims I have. Well dumb me, I checking the lug pattern and nothing else. Turns out the wheels were off a Civic so the center bore was only 64.1mm. Now what? Start hunting junk yards and asking everyone I know to no avail. Enter Guzm4n:
Great, Guzm4n saves me from the wraith of my wife, only have to spend a little more $ and I'm set. She tells me that I have to get the old steelies sold as soon as possible to offset my extra cost. Still I've got a great deal for an extra set of rims and snow tires so I'm happy. Run everything up to my friend so he can swap out tires. He gets done and we are talking about what else we are going to do to my Galant. We start talking about getting all my prothane bushings in and getting aligned. he tells me to go home and get the winter set on so as not to scratch my good rims when we align the car before we swap bushings so we know nothing else is bad. I'm thinking, great,finally some more progress, then he hits me with "you got the mag lug nuts that go with these rims right?" Yes I'm an idiot. So I spend about 6 hrs at the junk yard walking the ground and digging in the dirt but finally found them:
But I got lucky again and happened upon these:
AEM Short Ram Intake-$11
Eclipse Strut Bar-$12
Nice, the couplers look a little beat up, I think the AEM pipe is 2.75 inches, so you would need a 90 degree 2.75 inch coupler and a straight 2.75 to 3 inch for the MAF
15 F150 3.5 ecoboost 4x4 - daily driver
01 Galant ES V6 MT (sold)
00 Eclipse RS MT
The AEM intake was a deal!
I honestly had no idea Mitsubishi used mag lugs. And no worries, I thought to message you to see if you happened to have them still but you already saved my ass once. Words can not describe the anger my wife had towards me about these damn tires. I'm just very thankful you helped me out.
Stay chrome. Love that car.

xxr is a subdivision of American racing wheels if im correct. Rota makes knockoffs of popular wheels. im sure they make similar styles, but if youre on a budget, they're there for a low price. just don't purchase them and put volk/enkei stickers. its like getting a galant es and putting vr4 badges and telling everyone its a genuine vr4.
