EVO X MR BBS wheels on RA'10
 

hey guys just wanna share how the BBS wheels fits the RA (UPDATED)
Wheel Size: 18x8.5 +38 offset, Center Bore 67.1
Tire Size: 245/40R18 Yokohama Advan A13C (MY2008)
Comments: Forged, wheels are 18.5 lbs; wheel + tire ~43 lbs.
the good:
*BBS is so much lighter than the OEM wheels
*steering feels light as well
*excellent handling
*looks so much better the the stock wheels
*NO RUBBING issues with swift spring

the bad:
*increase ride height because of the fatter tires even with swift springs
*front wheels stick out
*slightly affects gas mileage because of the wider tires

Beautiful

I'm gonna have to disagree with you on those
-The ride height stayed the same for me
-The front wheels don't really stick out for me but then again, I am on RRM springs
-Gas mileage actually stayed the same and improved a little as well. I would say this is because the wheels are lighter.

BEAUTIFUL nonetheless!

Looks good bro. You know these wheels bumped your whp a little.

the ride height should be the same if not little less.. the tires on the BBS are 245/40 not 60 profile.. which is only 0.1" smaller than stock 215/45 so nothing in it really.. other than that looks good :) minus the cf band aid you have on :D

+1

You should powder-coat them :D

Where can i get me some!!!

parked evo x mr :lol:

+1^^ dont forget your tools and jack stands :D

You can check out evo guys private seller here in the forums they sell their stock wheels really cheap... The parking lot is BS :crap:

Looks good~

Looks great, I am a strong supporter of buying another vehicles stock wheels to keep , or until you can afford quality ones instead of buying cheap brands. :thumbup:

i wanna know about the fenders. Are those the actual vents off an X ? If so did you cut to make them fit?

Wheels look good though.

I thought we would rub being lowered on those wheels with 245s and fenders that aren't rolled?
