Mitsibushi Evo VII

[RevT]

Spent a good few hours cleaning this up. It really is an immaculate car other than a few stonechips, it's a credit to the previous owners. I have a folder full of documentation and receipts and I still have to sit down and have a good look through it. I'll stick up the spec list as soon as I get that looked at properly but in the meantime, he is a few photos :

Lovely car. I used to have a few of those little round holes in my seats years ago . My astra was like the surface of the moon.

Really like how square the arches are on the 7

lovely evo loks well looked after

 

[RevT]

I'm not sure if everyone will approve but I lifted these wheels this morning and had them fitted right away..

Set of Evo X wheels would look the part. A brand new set just sold on MLR for £380.

 

[Conor]

I liked the originals TBH. Something hugely purposeful looking about it like that, with the Rotas it looks like just another Evo used for posing and straight roads.

 

[Jason]

Looked nicer on original wheels.

 

[veedubnoodle]

Preferred the original wheels myself but it still looks well dude

 

[j44nty]

It will be getting chav tastic side skirt splitters next please keep it standard as said above. Nice to see an original one to be honest and I usually modify the beard off everything I own.

 

[CHARLIE11]

haters gonna hate lol

I like it

 

[euge07]

needs lowered alot to suit rotas, I liked it on original wheels, will you be fitting the splitter/skirt extensions?

IMO only rim change suits an evo 7 is revos or compomotives

The main reason I bought them is because the standards need tyres and these came at the price of a set of tyres so I bought them to see what I thought. Can always sell them on. I'm tempted to buy coilovers and carbon for it now but I can't justify it as it looks as good standard.

 

[Markhall]

the wheels look well. don't lower the bejaysus out of it.
old man coming out of me here but a lowered evo is hard sat in IMO

 

[Andy044]

Standard suspension is well set up in an evo, you'd need to spend big bucks to better it.
The wheels wont be to everyone's taste but I like them, unless your going to up the horsepower by a few hundred and spend half its life on a track the wheels will be fine for road use

I don't think the new wheels look too bad to be honest. Either way it looks well As long as it's not gonna get decked with stupid camber I think it's a winner Health to drive

 

[Lee]

I don't think anyone could actually say they look bad, they're not really an ugly rim. Its just the fact that they are so common and they are rep wheels on an Evo.

I love it by the way, part of me still wants to own an Evo some day.

 

[jordan 375]

Wheels look horrible on it, although never been a fan of that wheel in general, looks like every other evo on the road now. Car would look twice the car with a set of genuine jdm wheels

 

[Lyons]

I think the new wheels are grand, they do lead it down the requires lowering route.

As Conor said with the original wheels were perfect but, just made it look like it was ready for business.

Coilovers is the thing i regret most with the evo!

Tein springs on standard or ralliart shocks is adequate.

Throw an RS diff into her instead?

 

[nobby]

very nice car and all the best with it.

owning an evo makes no sense financially so thankfully it knows how to put a grin on your face and is a fun car to drive. Its one of those cars that you know you want to own at some point in your life. I had mine for nearly 4 years NEVER give me any bother but they know how to get into your wallet!

as above prefer the original wheels and standard setup

Im in work and the bloody old internet don't display the photos you have posted haha so going by the comments im building a picture in my head of how the car looks! So from this........ Lovely car - very jealous and id probably like the wheels its your car so do whatever you want to do.
