Why not dc2r is made for bling. You should do it and feel proud of deviating from the usual crowd.

DC2R is made for track.... not bling.

DC2 GSi would be a better option, as it won't be humiliated when it gets laughed at.

[SiReal]

thats stupid. then again, if your willing to put up with the amonut of crap you will get from the cops, general public, and mitsubishi owners, go for your life.

i support individualism, but there is a line between stupidity and reality.

edit: btw, dont take it personally ;) Not directed at you, but the idea.

Dont you have a volvo badge on your car?

[SiReal]

hahaha yep ;) but at least its realistic. 20s on a small car is not.

[BlitZ]

make sure they are gun metal jdm style rims..

that would be original

[Pumped]

hahaha yep ;) but at least its realistic. 20s on a small car is not.

:p lol i agree, especially a DC2R!

[xtercii]

huge chrome on dc2r is hot, that's how it should look like to comliment the big rear wing and it will pull high skool chicks hard...

GSi's are DC4 ;)

ps. Ppl, lets keep this on topic and help the thread starter out if possible.

[Sexc86]

hmmm, Will be a really tight fit, but the fact you have height adjustable coilovers is a good thing. You will deffinately need to lip all your Guards (F + R) also you will need to remove the plastic inside lineing at the front, dont be surprised if you have to do some grinding on the inside too on random sharp edges (if you do this make you you galvanize it when your finished or it has the potential to rust)... also flareing your front guards would be a good idea too as the minimum size tyre you can really get on a 20inch rim is 225 30 r20.

Now if your trying to fit rims that came off a supra onto your car i doubt that will happened as the offset will be way out and i think the supra stud pattern would be 5x120 and your ITR is 5x114? (correct if wrong), also the rims & Tyres on the supra im guessing would be quite wide... where as all you could really fit on an ITR is 7.5 maybe 8inch wide and a 225 tyre....

maybe give us some more info and please anybody correct me if i have the wrong info.

ps.. if your worried about legallaties, in qld you are allow a rim with no more then 15mm Over or 23mm Under your standard rolling diameter.... if its the same or any similar im quite positive the 20s even with the smallest tyres wont be legal (weather that bothers you or not). Also 20s will make your car higher then with your factors rims now even with your suspension (height setup) unchanged.

have a good think about if you want to go ahead with this especially if you daily drive the car, as no matter what you going to get scrubbing (unless you go all out with Tubbing your wheel archs.. BIG money there), also you your turning circle is going to be greatly reduced, and there will be a fair bit more strain on your drive train and components (reguardless on your driving style) due to the torque / load that will be put on things like your diff / box and clutch etc (from the excess weight of the rims)

Hope this helps mate :)

end of the day its your car, your money do what makes YOU happy... however keep in mind a ITR is a performance car and 20inch rims will deffinately limit its performance in every way possible....

[PaZzMaN-R]

20" rims on a dc2r go buy a lancer dude!
why have an awesome handling car for if you going to go and throw all the engineering in the car away for?

dc2r's are not showponys!!!!!!!!

[JazzR]

do it man!

[qstoria]

20' wheels on a dc2R is a terrible idea, utterly ridiculous, waste of time, waste of money, unpractical, illogical.. catch my drift

can i ask you why you even bought the type r in the first place?

[kyobibi]

dont it dude!

spend the money on a new lip + grill !
and your car will be hot as :)

[m0nty ITR]

I just wanna see the pics. Hasn't it already been determined that these wheels won't fit due to offset, width and stud pattern? Why would he still be humouring the idea?

As a Type R enthusiast I feel he's butchering his car by putting 20s on it. Why not just get a GSi if you plan on such mods? I'm that addicted to the Type R philosophy that my car remains empty of unwanted junk, I weighed my wheels before deciding on them and prefer to run the car on under half a tank of fuel to save weight. I cringe at the thought of putting 20s on a Type R. Just my opinion of course.

[JDM.Power]

be a man! do it =]

Why does it sound like Russell Peters when I read it back?:p

cause it is from russell peters, lol.

[xtercii]

go for it buddy!! it's about time for someone on ozhonda doing up a dc2r in the real way...

[m0nty ITR]

Don't let mechanical and physical hurdles get in the way. This wasn't Need For Speed - Sydney last time I checked.

In the real way? I'm gonna leave that alone.

[SHIFTY]

go for it buddy!! it's about time for someone on ozhonda doing up a dc2r in the real way...

do u even know what a dc2r is? ROFL!!!

lol, it will **** the handling (and the car is made 2 be great at handling) and will slow the car down (lol, they are only 1.8L)..

My opinion.. dont do it !!!

[Spunkymonkey]

hahaha....20s on an s15 is ridiculous by itself...friend has one that looks like a 4wd...no tony...don't be stupid....

[BlitZ]

cause it is from russell peters, lol.

isnt it..

be a man, do the right thing?:o

[mpd076-chuck]

20's on a DC2R is played out. I'd be looking at 22's. :thumbsup:

Then you take your dollar...

[<4n'D>]

lol spanner man!!
your car will rub the front with 245.
i had 235 with 18's and i rubbed at full lock
245x20 = kthxbye

[wlan-11g]

I agree with the serious posters. No point really and I'm sure it would look ridiculous too!

[m0nty ITR]

...and you go to tha dollar store and you buy sumthing else. :p

Hehehehe.

[vippy84]

get 17" or 18" will lower your car and make your car look beautiful. 20" is too much mate..
even I won't do 20" on my dc5r.. at most 19"
spend the money on something else.
definitely the offset from supra doesnt fit the offset of dc2r or dc5r.
I tried the skyline 17", 18" and 19" rims before, and it it way off and it will definitely scrub the inner part of my wheel arch. Even with rolling, it might not fit perfectly. you might even need widebody..
Look for cheaper and rims that suit your car. even if you want your dc2r to be a show car, but 20" is too much

[bennjamin]

a DC2R has no torque Mr tony. With 20's the thing wouldn't even move !

[shebangs]

I doubt anyone thinking of putting 20's on a DC2R cares about torque. Or even knows what it is.

[16CTEG]

you do realise your car will be a noticable amount slower with the big heavy 20'' rims!

[TRU32U]

well i got 1 point left so cant really do stoopid stuff any more....
ive alredi got the light weights on them and it just looks like a track car, yes i know its a track car but now want the pimpy look....
with out having to buy another car...
oh rims were donated so thats why im asking before i can b bothered to borrow old mans ute to transport it....

[wasabi]

LOL @ this thread.. i hate it when i see badly modified up type R's =( please dont do it .. but if u really like screw what i think.. lol

[teaseR]

do it!!!!!!!!!!! take some photos and post it up... no harm in doin so

[.::F[L]Y::.]
