I am selling my lightweight forged Motegi Racing Trak_Lite wheels. They are gunmetal in color and are 17x7-inch in size. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3mm or 5x4.5-inch and they have a +42mm offset. They only weigh 14 lbs. each because they are one piece forged. These are many times stronger than a cast wheel. One of the best mods you can do for your car.
You will not find these wheels any cheaper than $1,000.00 (new)
I will throw in some Motegi Racing lightweight chromed lug nuts as well. They are SplineDrive units for anti-theft. the removal tool will also be included.
These wheels had a perfect balance with the Yokohoma AVS ES-100 225/45ZRZR-17's and required no wheel weights.
PRICE: $600.00

If they fit one of my Tiburons I would not be selling them.
I am selling them so I can order the same set for my Tibby.
The more people that know about them the better. I figured you never know how many people on here have several other cars like I do.

Yes, That was a custom set-up for my old 1997 Probe GTS that was designed using Mitsubishi 3000GT twin turbo 13-inch front rotors, and Mazda Millenia S dual piston front calipers. I just simply did not have the custom shot peened brackets yet to mount them. Once completed that system was AMAZING! Especially when coupled with the 11-inch VOA BBK in the rear. Mega stopping power with no brake fade EVER!

why not upgrade your car to the 2003 + 5 bolts hubs?
i think it's an east swap and that would save your wheels ;-)

I would LOVE to do this swap, but everyone I have seen atempt this never completes it. Do you know anyone who has completed this 5 lug swap?
When I went to newtiburon last night the site was down.

well,
i did convert my accent from 4x114.3 to 4 x 100 to get a better choice of lightweight wheelsi had to machine the hubs and rotors
in your case, i.m sure you could have a machine shop redo the bolt patern for the front (there's plenty of meat) but for the rears you'll have to check
i've never tried it myself ( fro obvious reason i've got an accent) but i'd say that the GK hubs would be a quite simple mod...

If they work that would be great. I am not spending money on hubs and such only to find out they do not fit correctly, without other people confirming that it is possible.
By the time the machine shop got done machining the front and rear to my desired bolt pattern I could just sell my wheels and buy new ones for the same price...
