18x8.5 5Zigen GN+ on my silver Evo

Looks real good!

Next time for such massive pictures in a thread, label the thread with a "56K Warning" type description. I'm sure the 56K crowd won't be too pleased.

Lemme go ahead and add that.

I agree^^^ That wheel gap is awful, particularly the front with the 40 series tire. Nice rims though. Looks good.

I don't get it...you went from 6 spoke enkies to 5-Zigen almost the same. But hey, whatever floats your boat. Get some Tien S-Techs and that gap will be gone.

thanks for the compliments.

the fender gap looks worse in the pics then in person. i drive the car in the winter and dont want to lower it. people say get coil-overs, but they are expensive, and wouldnt like the salty roads here.

i decided on 18's and didnt know until two days after i ordered that 255/35 would have fit, i wish i would have known... not going to get new tires when these have 10 miles on them.

yes they are both six spoke wheels, but thats the only thing similiar about them to me, the whole design is completely different.

Those are nice looking wheels. Do they offer them with a polished lip?
