I have the same style ones on my Lancer, but they are from Nippon Racing. I think they look awesome on my Lancer and would look better on an Evo. I have gunemtal color though.

fyi i highly doubt the lip will be that big in the evo size
Check out the new pic I added..it is a pic of a 17x7.5 for a regular Lancer OZ. The Evo is a 17x8..so I'm pretty sure the lip will be that big.

Hmm, they're making a comeback for those that like them. I'm tempted to get them but the weight still bothers me for the price.
Another one that will supposedly fit and is REAL similar is the Fittipaldi Force. According to what I've read the Fittipaldi is a few pound lighter and about $20 more per rim. The Fittipaldi Force is listed at 19lbs.
Here is a pic:

It is becoming hard to find wheels in the $200 range for the Evo right now. The fn01rc is on national backorder with another shipment expected at end of Jan.
I'm sure there are others though...Any other ideas on a wheel that doesn't weigh a ton and is under $225 or so a piece?
I want a nice looking wheel but don't want to spend all my money on wheels...when it can be better spent on making more power

I think they look good..If they are the same size and wieght as the factory rims then you aren't changing anything, just gaining better looks..
