2008+ metal pulley upgrade advice

Hello all,

I recently have bought a 2013 used Evo x in pristine condition and wanted to do all the preventive maintenance before I actually put some hard miles on it and have read every forum post about the plastic pulley situation . Since reading about it I bought a "pulley kit" from WORKS. The kit came with two pulleys and not a tensioner pulley. I have read that the tensioner does not need replacing but have also seen wear pictures were it has been significantly worn . Where can I acquire a high quality tensioner ?
Most people replace these pulleys with AutoZone units that are slightly to big and cause clearance issues , there is also the Hyundai option as well that have the same issues .
I know this is an old topic but wanted to fix the issue correctly .
Thank you for reading and responding .
