Hi,

Anyone know where I can find some aftermarket alloy wheels for the MR2-S? Very little information on the net it seems and no pictures of anyone going down that route that I can find, is it not advisable on these cars?

Thanks

Should be plenty aftermarket options for wheels. I think standard offset is ET45, with a PCD of 4x100.

If you want the handling to remain as good as it is, probably not recommended to go larger than standard sizes. Also, the wheels are staggered, ie. the rear wheels are wider than the fronts, as are the tyres of course. Again, unless you know what your doing, its not advisable to deviate from this set-up.

My mate had 16's on his MRS and it looked pretty good. Anything above this and you will need to lower the car and possibly chop the arches a little so that the handling isnt screwed. If the MR2 Roadster doesnt handle then its not worth driving anymore. He had the same width wheels/tyres front and back, making the front wider than standard, which improved turn in. As long as you stick to the correct fitment you shouldnt have any trouble sourcing a set of wheels.
hope this helps,
Ian;)
