Try your Mitsubishi dealer -


....no, stop laughing, I'm serious ;)

Last time I enquired, a set of 17" Galant Sport wheels with Michelin Tyres was £680 all in!

Worth a look in Sh*tfords (Halfords) as well they have 20% off wheel and tyre packages at the moment.......and there is no delivery to think about!

Note that Evos and VR-4s use 5-stud wheels, whereas the V6-24 uses 4-stud wheels.

Oh yeah thanks mate,
I nearly made a big balls up there, I had to run downstairs to check.
Does any one know if the ofset is the same as early evos?

The problem with Halfraud's and similar places is that their wheel and tyre packages come with incorrect size tyres for the Galant, or the wheels are the wrong offset for our cars... :|

May be worth a look though!

I would pop along to your nearest "expert" wheel and tyre place and get them to jot down exactly what you need and then shop around :-D Often the offset of your exisiting wheels is marked on a plate on the inside of the rim.

I got my wheels/tyre package from Wheelbase - saved over £100 on next cheapest place and nearly £200 on S*itfords price for the same thing - arrived in 48hrs and cost £25 at local tyre shop to swap 'em over with the old wheels. http://www.wheelbasedirect.co.uk/site/
