updated pics... after 2.5hours of wet sanding and 6hours of cleaning, priming, spraying and clearing... i got the wheels i always wanted in the color i always wanted them in... Don't know if i'm the first to post pics of a AS8 with bronze Xwheels but i have been looking and couldn't find them anywhere... so here you go... nothing special in terms of pictures... they were taken right after the wheels were mounted... i'll get better pictures later on...

Took a snap shot of the first 2 wheels to be completed...




And here are some with all 4 finished and mounted on...







And here is just one of those moments where u walk outside and you feel so proud of ur evo lookin all sexy n **** that you had to take a pic... in this case i was exiting the post office and it was raining... couldn't resist... =)

you should really adjust your coils. its looks much worse then having it on stock suspension.

clearly ur factory struts must be ****... because im 110% sure my front end wouldve been looking to the sky had i left them in...
my coils are adjusted and aligned... i like where my car sits... it lets me drive around without having to take speed bumps/dips at an angle and the handling is perfect...

I have a Rexpeed CF D-style lip...

glad u guys liking the silver/bronze combo

Looks good.. I just wish you got them balanced with the weights that sit inside the rim. The ones you have on there now really detract from the overall look.
