******************

After over three months of waiting, my rims finally arrived. This wouldn't have been a problem if demand for Work CR Kai rims in gunmetal with 18x9.5 +20 offset didn't shoot up in demand thanks to Evo-L's previous setup (Evo-L's GG Evo w/CR Kai's)

Thanks to Francis from A-SPEC and Jim from Work Wheels USA for dealing with my annoying phone calls, PM's, and e-mails over the past three months. Francis really helped my decision of getting a staggered +20front/+30 rear offset with 245/40/18 tires . At current ride height I have no rubbing issues, and I haven't rolled my fenders.

SETUP
Rims: Work Emotion CR Kai 18x9.5 (gunmetal)
Rims Offset: +20 front/+30 rear
Tires: Falken RT-615 245/40/18
Suspension: Megan Track Series Coilovers
Lugs: Rays Duraluminum (black, short, closed)
Fenders: Untouched
Spacers: Not needed


Now to the pics! (eventually I'll get some pics with tire shine, and a washed evo )

This was nice to come home to






+20 on the left, + 30on the right


+30 in the front, + 20 in the rear


mounted


very light!


I painted the Work aluminum valve stems to a flat black (they were blue originally)


alright, enough teasing (yes, this was a meijer parking lot )








what do you think?

 

shiiiiitttt

 

Thanks! ...hmmmm ^^^^I hope that's a compliment

 

they look good man

 

Wow, those look really good. Makes me wish this fitment guide was out when I purchased mine a year ago.

Had I known this size would fit, I would of bought these rather than the 8.5 I do have.

caelin~

 

why are you running staggered set?? Look sick by the way

 

very nice. do you think the staggered offset will effect your AWD system negatively? Handling? etc?

 

looks good

 

I'm running staggered to avoid rubbing and fitment issues. The +20s clear the calipers in the front and rear but you have to roll the fenders in the rear no matter what tire size you run.

+30s don't require rolling in the rear depending on your tire size and drop, but they require a spacer in the front to clear the calipers.

 

very niiice! I had those on order, but got screwed by america's tire and a-spec- they sold the rims out from under me...so I had to go with these works.

 

Damn work blocking photobucket, I can't see any of the pics. I'll be getting these wheels soon on my Mustang, hopefully the first set ever on a stang. 18x9.5 +20 all around but 275's instead of the baby tires you guys run... lol j/k.

How much do the wheels weigh? (again, can't see the pic)

 

I never weighed them. Does anyone else know?

 

As far as I know there shouldn't be any issues with the AWD system from the staggered offset. I've read about others on evoM running a staggered offeset with different rims, and not having any issues.

 

Looking good!
Do you think you could squeeze 265 or 275's on there?

 

looks great man congrats..
