They should be available soon. Send Mackin a link to this thread and all the others on the gloss black color and I bet they will be out even sooner.

talked to my contact at Mackin already, they have not put an order for inventory for the g-black te37s or ce28s, so it is custom order right now with a 3 month wait time.

MACKIN will be getting some sets in for the EVO, but as of now, no orders have been placed for general inventory at all for the g-black te37s or ce28s.

the only ones they will be getting early are the preordered ones from customers.

that is the reason for the 34 on the rear, so it doesnt rub.

they look great, i was planning on a set of VR Mercury Silver CE28N's in 18" x 9.5" myself.

i think the only other rim i'd really consider would be the sportec mono/10 in anthracite.

that's what i had on my bronze set of ce28s.

i will be running 255/35 18"

if you rolled the rear fenders, you can probably do 265/35 18".

it should fit because i will be running endless 6pot front and 4 pot rears, or the same set-up but from alcon.

just wanted to let everybody know who were interested in my gold le28s that i am no longer selling these as of now.

i cancelled my order on my g-black le28s because they didn't carry the offset needed for the rear wheels for my evo.

the only application all around available for the evo in the g-black le28s will be the standard 18x8.5 +30 offset.

the tires that i will be running for the gold 18x9.5 le28s will be either falken st-115 or hankook ventis k140.

when the new falken azenis rt-615 come out, that will be my tire of choice.
