The picture of the white Evo that I posted is a good representation of what you would get with the RGII in 17X9 +35. You still get the concave face!

What I was trying to illustrate with the pictures of the GTR and the NSX is the difference between a "high pad" and the GTR face. If you look real closely at the GTR, you will notice that there is a very pronounced "LIP." That look, with the LIP is something that Evo fitments do not have.

In 17X9 +35, the RG II would look as it does on the white Evo posted above. You get the the concave face but it is not as extreme as the GTR face and you don't get any LIP.

I'll check on the weights of these wheels as soon as I can...

There was an independent website. It looks like it is still working. It has been awhile since I got on it. It is
wheelweights.net

See if that help you out. You can check out the wheel you are looking @ Alphabetically by Name, by Size, or by Weight.

18x9 +29 is the only GT-R face design that will fit the EVO. Same wheel that HKS Kansai is using

Thanks
