PM 500whp.com. I believe Jeffrey should be able to get either for you. Neither style is cheap, however.

Just keep in mind that spoke-caliper clearance can be an issue with the evo. So make sure that which ever wheels you decide on have good clearance.

Buddy club P1 QF rims are rated at 14.5 lbs in a 17x9 +35mm offset, and 13.8 on my bathroom scale (FWIW). I need to run a 3mm spacer to clear the calipers.

I got mine through Gruppe-s. The rims are very expensive, incredibly strong, but well worth every penny.

When ordering you might try getting the +32mm offset, this might solve the clearance issue with the calipers.

Exactly. I know they are popular. But they are inexpensive, quality is good, stylish, great fitments for the evo, great color choices and easy to get a hold of. I have 2 sets!
