Default Mugen MF-10's...

I put on my bronze mf-10s this weekend and honestly, Im not that impressed. They don't look horrible, I was just expecting them to look better.

My car is bone stock besides the wheels. Maybe a drop, front lip, and rear spoiler will help.

Since you don't list size/offset and the rest of your car is stock I could see why it may not look great. There's several members in the gallery with them and I think they look good?

LOL, you said your Stock.... You need atleast a drop to make any wheel look good. Tire sizes are also critical.

I got 215 45 17 and 245 40 17 star specs. Should I have gone wider?

Ride height with 17s plays a big role. The other part of the problem is how over hyped MF-10 and M7s (especially 7s) are - hopefully thats not why you bought them. In the 'community' a few member have taken it upon themselves to buy up multiple sets and hoard them/promote/hardpark and create a false 'demand' for them although no one bought them when they were in production.

All that said, the MF10 is a clean wheel that light and comes in S2000 specs. A drop (whether it be through springs or coilovers) will greatly help with the overall look. Hopefully you can get it to where you like it but if not, they're not too hard to sell.

i would say go for a drop at least. it is a bit of an aggressive wheel in my opinion so it might look to busy if the rest of the car is still plain.

like rnye said though, at least you know they will be easy to move if you decide they aren't for you. i think a lot of people love them for the company they represent more than just the wheel itself.

Get rid of the baby-head sized wheel gap, and they'll look much better.
