You are going to have to run 4.5 degrees of neg camber to get those to clear when you lower it. Maby they sent you the worong rims?

great... yet another EVO with wheels that don't fit. that looks like crap. reminds me of those 95 civic coupes rollin on gold dayton's with spinners pushed 3 inches out passed the fender well. i don't get why EVO owners insist on buying wheels that just don't fit. then they have to run all kinds of crazy camber, tug, roll, pull, and trim fenders to get them to almost look right. why not just buy the right size in the first place? for a while i thought that wheel manufacturers just didn't make anything that fit our cars. i thought maybe the EVO had an odd size or something, and people just had to make do with what was available. then after some research i realized that people just do stupid stuff on their own. like when they remove the wing and put damn plastic or rubber stoppers in the holes instead of getting them filled/painted, or buying an RS trunk. it's just sad to screw up a 30K+ car like that.

Your stupid. I wanted wide wheels and as a result i get the effect you described. Its not about buying wheels that are the same size as stock, when you can go wider lighter and bigger.




Before wider front fenders...

The vendor you bought them from didnt recommend you a tire that would pull nicely to have more room? Your going to have problems in the rear when you lower it, unless you run some camber with those wide tires. They are definately wider then my Kdw2's were, they look like my friends R-comp 255's, width wise.

I can point anyone in the right direction to a vendor that will actually explain what is needed to make the wheels look good and fit. Im sorry to the OP, but it looks like there will be problems. I will help you sort them out if you run into them, I just feel bad for you. PM me if you need any help.

Also, when someone buys a +30 for the front and needs to run a 10mm spacer, it makes it a +20 in the front. SInce he has the +20's all around, he can also rotate them just like anyone with +30's, he just wont have to spend another $100 on kics spacers.

shut up dumbass. those wheels look retarded on an otherwise stock vehicle. if you're going widebody, by all means, get wide wheels. but on a stock bodied car, there's no point other than to look retarded.
