i am very upset ireght now!!!

 

not sure which vendor sold those to you, but those are not meant for evos, they are meant to be rear wheels for a staggered setup.

 

The wheels are out, they come in 17X8 with I believe 35mm offset. My friend ordered them approx. 2 weeks ago and has them in his possession as we speak waiting for the tyres. They are relatively light, under 18lbs./each

 

did he test them on his car?

as far as I see on the ROTAUSA list there is no 17x8 D2 and the 17x8.5s that are out are not for EVO's, they are meant for the REAR on staggered setups

 

where did he get the wheels from?

 

I'm sorry they are 8.5" I just found out. No he hasnt tested them and I have informed him that they probably wont fit. Sucks for him, he JUST bought them thinking he'd be one of the very first few who'd have these knock off SP1's.

 

same thing that i thought man but oh boy was i wrong...vendor that sold to me is not any part of these boards they are local...he says he is able to return wheels to rota but now i gotta swallow shipping cost for THEIR mistake...whatever i guess cant win em all plus id rather be out $80 then $750......

dont buy them. they have a cheater lip and look horrible compared to the real thing. the spokes come even with the lip but if your looking at it face on it looks deep but if it is from the side it looks like ****. my friend has them on his s14 and he is not satisfied with them.

you have an evo, buck up and get some wheels worthy of the car

 

your friend has the 18" D2's on this S14?

As far as I know the first batch just came in last week, but I may be wrong

I agree, the 17" isn't that nice, but the 18" version does look a lot better.

Also, the 18x9 looks different, its a wider wheel so it has a different look.

 

 

oh my bad, i was responding from the first page. He has the 17's with the +20 offset.

Do the 18's actually have a deep style lip? I know the 17x7.5 and 17x8.5 look to be the same style lip.

you should really update zilvia with the 18x9 group buy. ive been waiting for a long time to see what they actually look like and the last time you said we should expect them was august and its been a while.

edit: could you post up a picture of this wheel in an 18 size im in the market for them but they would have to be four lug
