I don't know if this counts as aggressive since I don't have my coils yet, but I figured I share a picture of my wheels with you guys for now. Ray GramLights 57Pro Titanium in 18x9.5 +30

Only had the car just on two weeks. Bought the rims when the deposit was paid on the car, how it currently sits.
Still wanting to play with the height. imo needs to be lower in the back just a touch, and somewhat more in the front. Rolled both rear and front. no bumber bolt re-location. its been scrubbing a bit, but not on that bolt/mount.

Work 11R's
18X9.5 +12 with 235/40's
-2 camber all round.

EVO looks great However, that +12 offset is impossible to fit on a stock body. Also the 235 is out of range for that 9.5" wide wheel

Lulz. "Lots of people are running tires too narrow for a 9.5" rim so it must be okay." Do what you want, but that tire is not functionally appropriate for your rims. Also, on 18"s you should be running a 35 series tire, or replacing the gears for your speedo. But I'm sure 100s of people don't so who cares.

These are fine examples of junk that does not belong in this thread. Post this garbage in that other thread (wink)
+12 only works on EVO's w/over fenders. Just look at the 9.5 +12 with the 265's. You can clearly see the butchered rear fenders & the extreme, out of range camber.
And the guy running the +12 with the -2 camber & the 235, your tires & camber are out of specification & you will never get this to fit correctly

Its function over form. You guys have it **** backwards The thread is supposed to be Aggressive not Incompetent

Why'd you delete your Comment? We're having a good discussion!?

The Ultimate Aggressive Wheel Thread...-iyulr2e.png

Before posting in here, I read through from front to back. The original post (below) gave me the impression this thread was for aggressive rim setups. Going off your post and one above not only does my setup not meet that requirement but my car is also junk. Im now genuinely curious as to where "aggressive" ends and after thanking me for asking the question, you just threw in another childish comment....

There is a relatively small group of us that pride themselves in their Function or Form perspective when it comes to wheel, tire & suspensions
We are disappointed to see these low offset wheels being used at the sacrifice of the EVO's suspension
If you dont mind, we will move on back to our corner of the forum
