My Evo LM's
here's the thing, my rims are smaller than yours lol...they're 18x8.5 with an original offset of 38...but when i reverse mounted them, i measured a difference of 14-17 mm in difference...and it wont give you more lip, but make the rim look deeper...one thing you will need to do tho is polish up the chrome part of the rim where the face contacts it cuz there will be residue....i wish i had some before and after pics of how my rims looked...
i forgot to mention that i also have an 8mm spacer just for the reason that i needed it to clear the front caliper...i added one in the back just so it looks even, even tho i didnt need it...
