They look kind of cheap in my eyes (a bit like Tenzo DC5 copy but not as nice) and they are too small - but hey you have to like them - its your evo.

The wheels are 18x9 +30. They are far from small. I guess they give off the illusion of small because of the internal red line.

I think most people are mistaking the lip of the wheel as being tire which is why they look small. And the reason I don't like them is because I personally think the "Time-Attack" lip fad looks disgusting and needs to be buried.

Nice ride overall. I think the wheels "looks" a little small on the car that's why people aren't feelling it. Maybe a little more drop would make it look better. Keep up the nice work.

Thanks. I agree on the drop but me and JIC are in a bit of a battle right now (save it for another story once everything is resolved)

I think the pictures do the wheels no justice. They are quite large. so much so that 265 tires are flush with the lip. Then they are 18s...the red internal ring makes them looks smaller.

303 Huh? I grew up in Arvada Colorado. Went to Arvada Sr. High back when they were the "Redskins"

I went on their site.....they are back ordered until september 20th.

So what can we do to hook me up with those springs???? I have some camber plates on the way. I would love to install them and the GF210s at once.

I added a APR GTC200 wing today.....Looks so amazing!
