Have a look at http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts/Mitsubishi/Exterior/auction-21544190.htm or I might be looking to sell mine.

Stock rims but have new Bridgstone Turanzas on all round. Looking for $600 or so.

Did you try 19" :rolleyes5

18" was already decided to be costly on tires, 19" would be more.

Did you try the tyre calculator (http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3031)

how bad is the vibration? could be brake rotors?

could be inner CV's, they are suppose to be a weak point on Legnums and V3000
s I had vobration under load so got them replaced and it's sweet now.... it seemed to get worse when I got new tires to for some reason.

Hmmm, pllanting my foot to the floor too I get a rumble bearing type sound..which seems to come from the rear.... I am not sure if this is related to power delivery to the rear wheels ... I heard and felt the same rumble when sat in the back of another legnum VR4 ecently...

If the accelerator is let up the noise disappears.. it only happens under flat out acceleration 1st to 3rd gear ..

I will investigate further....
