I plan on keeping my stock rims when I get my new ones.

Will throw some winter tires on them so as to not kill myself in this city, as it has never learned how to plow roads.

Can't wait to see the pics. My friend (Otter, mod on these boards) has these in black on his '04 Ralliart. I loved them when I saw them! When you post up the pics (which I hope is soon!!!) tell us the specs.

Post the rims up in the Private 'Lancer (DE,ES,GTS) 2008+' For Sale /Wanted. The non GTS guys love to get upgrades too. I'd assume around 400+ for the rims give or take a little.

Keep them. You never know you may f'up a wheel and you may need to put the stocks back on. Happened to me. Forced off the road, into a curb, bent my wheel to hell. Took two weeks to get a new one shipped. Thankfully I had my stock ones sitting in the garage. Better than rolling a donut for two weeks.

With +45, he should be fine. I only rub on deep bumps with 235s and a +38 offset (I'm only out about 5 mm it looks like).

Nope. That's why I was mentioning the deep bumps... basically, I only rub when my car bottoms out right now. I would rub bad if lowered. Just by visual and feel, I'm about 5 mm too far out right now. But if he has that additional offset, it should work for him even if dropped. He might need to roll the fenders, but I doubt it.
