thats probably by far the cleanest EVO I have seen... those RGII 18x9 GTR faced wheels look bigger than what it is! Very nicely done! Good job!

Is the reason why you stayed with a 255/35 because of the 9" not the 9.5" like your last set of wheels?

this is the recommended tire size for this rim and because of the aggressive rear offset.

remember, i had 18x9.5 +34 rear on my ce28s, so 18x9 +29 should be the same on where the rims stick out.

the 255/35 18" fit nice. if you want to run a 265/35 18" you will have to roll the fender.

thanx for the compliment.

the big spokes on the wheels make the wheeels look bigger.

Is there any change in handling because of the offset? less turn in, or more rear rotation at speed?
It looks great , i just dont want to change the character of the evos handling, and would like to know before i make a purchase.

looks great i cant wait to get mine. With the 9" did you have to get wider fenders and do you have any rubbing issues?
