Looking at possible new wheels for my whip and I came across a few posts for Mita Wheels. Does anybody here have any experience with these? The specs look absolutely awesome ....... many diameters, widths, and offsets so you can really dial it in if needed. Good solid information seems to be somewhat lacking on the web. Thanks in advance for any and all replies ......... Dos ;-)

These look cool as heck! I love that I can get color matched championship white powder coated wheels! I wonder how close they would be to actual color.

Howdy.

Late to the thread here. After reading Hammeredsole and your threads, and milling over my options for MONTHS, I made a decision.
Turns out that decision is the MITA Motorsports FKS wheel.
Thanks to both of y'all for lighting my path to his decision.

Wheels were ordered in the first week of May, 2025.
I have decided to go with:

Style: FKS wheel
Size: 18x9 inch
Inset / Offset: ET +45
Lug Pattern: 5x120
Center Bore: 64.1
Color: Hyper Silver

With these being completely custom wheels, the overall wait time is projected to be up to 120 days or so. That puts delivery between late August and early September, 2025.
I'll keep y'all posted.

Cheers.

18x9? Thats narrower than the stock wheel, why not 18x9.5 or 18x10?

I'm going for lighter weight than stock and adding some cushioning for a smoother ride. I'm one of those weirdos who bought a Type R for the highway, not for the track, so I want a smoother and (hopefully a bit) quieter ride than stock. I'd like to increase my ground clearance on top of that.
Looking to install a wider and taller tire on a narrower wheel, also, for protection from damage. I've already had the curb reach out and kiss my OEM FL5 Black wheel on the stock Michelin 265/30 ZR 19 tire. I've never liked the stock tire-to-wheel selection since I got the car. This tire size always seemed very precariously narrow and thin for this absolute unit of a massive wheel.

The current plan is to put the Mita FKS 18x9 wheel... and I know this sounds crazy, hear me out... on a 275/40 R 18 tire, for...
muh muh muh muh Maximum Chonk!

Still researching tires. Looking at All Season options like Continental DWS and Michelin Pilot Sport All Season. Both seem to be very good for year round highway tires. Perhaps an all season road tire will provide decreased rolling resistance than the Pilot Sport 4 S?, and therefore slightly better fuel economy as well...? Not too sure about that.
I know that adding taller and wider chonky tires will add significant weight to the overall package.
I'm hoping that the lightweight forged wheels should help offset that heavy tire for overall good weight distribution.

Edit:
Also... almost forgot to mention!
I ordered a set of Honda Forged FL5 Type R wheels from College Hills Honda to replace the stock OEM Black wheels. The new Type R wheels will be going on some form of 275/35 ZR 19 tires. Probably Pilot Sport 4 S... just finally the right size this time.
Gonna have to get the speedo recalibrated.

Yes they do.
Something I never knew until I looked at the Mita Motorsports website.
Mita makes a few different clone Honda wheels as well.
I'm completely new to JDM performance cars, so this is all new to me.
I found a really good channel on YouTube called "LHT Performance" when I was researching Mita. It is a Honda performance shop in Florida who do a lot of work on Civics and S2000s. I don't remember top of head the shop owner's name, but he bought a set of those Mugen clone wheels for one of the cars and it looked really good.

Mita also has a VERY small YouTube channel called "MITA Studios" if anyone wants to see it. You can watch that whole channel in under 20 minutes.

Update.
I got TWO emails from Mita Motorsports this morning. It looks a sif my wheels have been manufactured and shipped from Japan to Hong Kong. From there they will get shipped to the US.

The first email from MITA LLC:

"Dear [Sporky],
Thank you for placing your order with us!

We’re pleased to inform you that your order has been picked up by and is currently en route to you via the courier.

Please allow sufficient time for delivery. Should you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us. We hope you enjoy your purchase!"

This first email included a copy of my purchase invoice.


The second email from MITA LLC:


"Your Order Has Been Delivered – Share Your Feedback

Dear [Sporky],

We are pleased to inform you that we have received all the necessary information for your order 10XXX, and your order is now ready to ship. Our team is currently processing your order, and it will be on its way to you shortly.

What Happens Next:
Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking information so you can follow your package’s journey. Please keep an eye on your inbox for updates.
If your order includes multiple items, there might be instances where some items ship separately. In this case, you will receive tracking information for each individual package as it ships out.
We want to ensure that the entire shipping process is smooth and transparent for you, so here’s a brief overview of what you can expect:
  • Packaging: Your items will be carefully packaged to ensure they arrive in perfect condition. If there are any issues with your shipment, such as visible damage, please notify us immediately.
  • Shipping Carrier: We will use the most reliable shipping carriers available to ensure a timely and safe delivery. The exact carrier will be indicated in your tracking email.
  • Shipping Time: Once shipped, the delivery times may vary based on your location, carrier, and external factors such as customs processing (for international orders). We recommend checking your tracking link for the most up-to-date delivery status.
  • Tracking Information: After your order has shipped, you will be able to track it using the tracking number provided. If you encounter any delays or have questions regarding the status of your delivery, the tracking link will provide the most detailed and accurate information.
Important Information for International Orders:
If your order is shipping internationally, please be aware that customs procedures can sometimes cause unexpected delays. Import duties, taxes, and other fees may apply depending on the country of delivery. These charges are the responsibility of the recipient.
We recommend checking with your local customs office to familiarize yourself with any additional costs or documentation required. If you need assistance, please feel free to contact us.

Your Order’s Delivery Status:
You can follow your order’s journey through the carrier’s tracking system. If there are any issues, such as failed delivery attempts or delays, the tracking system will provide information on how to resolve them. In some cases, the package may require a signature for delivery, so please ensure that someone is available to receive the package when it arrives.
We strive to ensure all orders are delivered in a timely manner, but please be aware that there may be unforeseen circumstances that could affect delivery. If you experience any problems with your shipment or need assistance, don’t hesitate to contact us. We are always happy to help.

What to Do if You Miss a Delivery Attempt:
In the event that you are not available to receive the package at the time of delivery, the carrier will typically leave a notice indicating how to either arrange for a re-delivery or pick up the package from a local facility. Please act promptly to avoid any additional delays or fees.
If you fail to pick up the package or arrange a re-delivery within a certain period, the package may be returned to us. If this happens, you will be responsible for return shipping fees and re-delivery costs as per our Terms and Conditions.

Thank you once again for your trust in MITA Motorsports. We greatly value your business and are excited for you to receive your order. We look forward to serving you again in the future."


So... the whole "Your Order Has Been Delivered - Share Your Feedback" thing threw me off a bit. I take it to mean that this is just a form email and that "Shipped N Feedback" header is just part of the format.
It won't make sense for me to respond with feedback, obviously, until I receive the package.

One step closer to new JDM wheels.

I'll update when I have tracking info.

Guess I should go ahead and familiarize myself with "my local customs office".

I know I'm coming in late, but I know Mita from the NSX world and they always made great products and were a known name to any of the NSX enthusiasts. I would 100% trust them for wheels and anything else they make for the car.
