No rubbing at all even when turning aggressively. Only when I hit a huge pot hole. The nice thing about those wheels are that they're pretty strong. To answer some of the questions. No EDFC, the tires are 235/40/18 and the wheel offset is 30. All the wheel and tire information are here. Just click on the link for the Evo VII. I'll try to download more pictures tomorrow

I am going to put SO3's on my new EVO when the Advan's wear out. I know that they are not as good but are the SO3's at least somewhat acceptable?

There are a bunch of twisty roads that I love driving on. The S0-3's don't have the grip and the car understeers so much more now. Needless to say I don't drive their anymore. I'm just going to wait until I can find Advans that fit my bigger wheels. Until then I'm just gonna enjoy how the car looks. I mean, the S0-3's aren't that bad, it's just that the Advans are just soooo good. You'll be dissappointed if you change them.

That setup looks great s4awd.

When I trade my car in for the RS or Ralliart Edition , I think I'm gonna go white.

This has been discussed before here but the S-03 do not work very well on Evos. The S-02 was much better for this car.

The tire I would like to see on the EVO is the Falken Azenis. They are not available in 235/45/17.
