2002 Galant Wheels...Replaced stock RS Wheels.
Finally took off those ugly-a$$ RS stock wheels.
My fiance' has a 2002 Galant and I loved her stock wheels so she bought 4 steelies for her car for winter time and gave me her stock wheels. In return I'm going to buy her some new wheels for the Spring and Summer. I would of just bought aftermarket wheels myself but I love stock clean wheels and being that it's off another mitsubishi made it even cleaner. Here's some pics, I'll do a before and after pics.
Before:
Painted:
Restored back to Silver:
After:
Close-up:
I love them, It would of looked nice with my 2gb high-rise but I got that stolen right before I put these on. BUTTT!!!! My car will be having a lovely christmas because my mother is giving me the money for a new 2gb high-rise and my fiance' is paying for my car alarm I'm going to get installed right after christmas. SWEEEEEEET!!!!!!!

You mean on my fender???
I bought 2 of those off eBay because they match the car so well. About 7 bucks a piece, It adds a little more taste to the car, plus I trying to make up my own special edition RS 
It says "Mitsubishi Motors" even though I have a 420a, I don't care still looks good and techinically it's an Mitsubishi Eclipse anyway.
