Do you have the full wheel specification? For example 18 x 9.5 +20 offset?

In any event, the +20 is going to make fitment very tough. It certainly can work if you modify the rear fenders

Well, there is no perfect size. Each wheel has its own combination of offset & spoke design & tire fitment

But in my opinion this range may be Ok w/out modifying the rear fender

18x8.5 to 18x9.5 w/an offset of +35 to +38 running a 255/35/18 tire

But its also my opinion that you should consider modifying the rear fenders, otherwise just run the stock wheel 17x8 +38

+20 is a very difficult offset to run on the 8 or 9. It requires a lot of rear fender work in which most guys have not done. They usually run a stretched tire & out of spec camber to attempt to fit & likely still rub

Yes, a +35 is a very safe, no hassle offset for a stock body EVO. Should not have to perform any rear fender mods (wheel width & tire size do effect this)

The stock EVO hub bore is 67.1. You will need to run the preferred alum hub rings vs the plastic. We all run the rings so its normal & needed!

Depends on the wheel. Are you thinking about an 18x9.5 +30 running a 255/35 tire?

If so, plan on having the rear fenders rolled at the mininum. You can run the 265/35 tire as well, but will need more rear fender work

Do yourself a favor & search this thread & read what others are running. This will help you understand the common specs we are using

10.5 is very difficult to fit. Not for the faint of heart. 9.5 more prone to rear fender work but very popular. 8.5 much easier to fit w/out rear fender work

Get the size that suits your needs. Be prepared to modify the fenders if you plan on going aggressive.

The 18x9.5 +35 would be your best bet. If you run a 255/35/18 tire you may be able to get away from a rear fender roll but its going to be close. You can consider using a 245/35 & that will likely work OK w/no rear fender roll

Forget about the +20 until youre ready for some real rear fender work
