Really Need Advice on Sport Pedals for 04 Oz Rally..... (Need Input)

my g/f wants some sport pedals for her Lancer and I have no clue where to go to find these or what sites are legit or not. I dont want something cheap or too expensive, but looking in the neighboor hood of 50-60 bucks. Any feedback would be great.

^ Those are good ones. I had a silver set, looked nice and felt good too. btw, I think the website lists them as being for the Evo, but it's the same thing. Make sure to use a titanium drill bit to drill the holes when installing them!

I actually went to the site and under US ES, OZ, and Ralliart Lancer and found the same pedals, but for 10 bucks cheaper.

Here is the link:

If you scroll down you can see it. So are they really that good?

can someone help me understand if these pedals are direct replacements or is it a stick on thing? Thanks.

BW, any other sites you recommend?

Here's how these work (if I recall correctly): You remove the rubber covers from your clutch and brake pedal. For those two, you drill holes into the pedal and then install the sport pedal over it with the provided bolts and nuts. For the gas pedal, you drill pilot holes into the stock pedal and use provided screws to attach the sport pedal to it. They're really pedal covers.

So honestly is this a good product for the price? If you can get back to me that would be awesome since I have 2 weeks until my g/f's b-day.

Well, performance to cost ratio is pretty crappy, since it doesn't make the car any faster but seriously, I think it's a high quality kit and worth the price if she wants the car to look more racey (not ricey, racey). The pedals felt good to me (I even removed the plastic circles and looked awesome. It takes a little elbow grease to install, but it's a nice kit that looks and functions well. Besides, if that's all your girl wants, count your blessings. Mine wants a diamond ring!!!

Yeah, they're to provide better friction. But I think they look like @$$ and I didn't really have any slippage problems without them (except only once my foot slipped off the clutch). Just wipe your feet if it's raining (which only happens about 10 days a year here in Cali).
