Lip looks good. Does it scrape all over driveways since it sticks out so far forward?

Actually it has less backspacing (aka more inner clearance) than a 9.5 +38, which is a very popular size/offset for the rear.

If you can make the outside fit, yes, you'll be fine.

interesting responses. Anyways, thanks for all the input.

Followed is the exact same set up I own and use on my 350z. Since I'm getting rid of the car, I thought maybe... I could try them on the evo8. I'll try it out this weekend. LOL
