Default Mita Wheels

Looks aside is there any particular reason why more folks are not running the Mita wheels? The offsets appear pretty decent and the cost is OK as well (Titan7 ish prices.)

My guess for $500 a wheel there are other options. Never heard of Mita wheels until now.

Damn near 20lbs for a 17inch wheel @ $500 doesn't sound all that appealing.

Me either. Curious what the wheel in question looks like. Better be pretty fantastic looking.

I am up in Canada - $500 USD (Mita Wheels) is in the ballpark of Weds TC105s and Less than the Titan7s.

They look like Gen 1 NSX wheels.

A lot of people on the NSX forums have them. They offer an NSX Type S wheel but in a +1 size I might order one day. I ordered some 20th anniversary S2000 stuff from them, they seem to have a really extensive store with anything you could ask for.

We are talking about Mita Motorsports Wheels? the 02-05 NSX copy wheels? Mita is a well known company in the NSX community, but i'm not familiar with how good the quality of the wheels are. For $2k per set (+shipping from Japan), i'd rather go with one of the cheaper reputable wheels like Wedsport, Advan or Enkei. Titan7 are good quality wheels too.

They look good in the pictures. But, they are heavy, and they are expensive especially when you add in shipping expense. Also, staggered 17" not available.

Those of you who are saying MITA's wheels are heavy, I'm not sure I understand what your expectations are? These V3 reps are around 16 lbs which is similar to Titan 7's wheels weights.
