Love them wheels, good luck I am in the middle of a build right now for my son and know how expensive it is. We are in the process of turning a highly modded motor back to stock

sweet should make good numbers let me know how you like the clutch it takes along time to break in .
at first mine chatterd like hell and would stall when coming to a stop light because of the flywheel being so light.
give me your input when you get to driving it

I like it so far, it did almost stall today turning a corning at a light as I down shifted but the car also isnt tuned yet either so its not exactly running perfect. Just has a base map Aaron at english uploaded to the ecu. Chatter isn't as bad as some lighten flywheels ive had.

I'm just waiting for the other wheels I special ordered to come in and then im going to install the 265/35/18 hankook RS-3's on them. Stretch is just to fit the CCW wheels and complete the look but I also have a set of wheels for function also.

I want mine rolled Does it damage the paint or create a bunch of creases? If I were to get spacers wouldn't rolling them give the evo a wider looking stance?

If you do it right it wont damage anything, yes it would give it a wider stance with the spacers and the rolling would keep it from rubbing. Im going to try and make it to the meet this Saturday so if you're there you can see what they look like in person.

I'll try to find it on my own, if I don't what is the time\location?

Edit: Spoke too soon lol. Well depending on weather and how my girls feeling I'm down! I haven't been to an evo meet yet. My car is hella dirty too so i dunno

There's really no need for wider street tires, I already have another set of new 265/35/18 hankook RS-3's, I'm just waiting for the wheels to come in.
