There are cheaper options than volks though. Look at Muteki's

No the stockers are Acorn style. The volks and mutekis etc are not. Most aftermarket rims require volk style lug nuts. Stock rims require acorn style.

Stockers aren't acorn. They've got a shank on them.

Unless your definition of "Acorn" and mine are completely different.

You're right. I thought Rays Duranuts are conical/acorn style.

I don't know if the Volk lugs would work, but I can tell you that your Evo is 1.5. Mostly just Nissans/Infinitis seem to use 1.25. I would also suggest the Mutekis because I don't know how well the blue finish holds up on the Volks and they are big money to replace. The Mutekis do get scratched up eventually, especially if you are working on your car often and rotating your tires as you should, but they're cheap and easy to replace. I have the blue Mutekis and I replace them about every other year to keep them looking new and they where only thirty bucks. I recently took photos of the car and since I didn't have the money at the time for new Mutekis, I used some Duplicolor Metalcast Blue and touched them up to where they look like new again. Take a look at your present lugs though before you buy anything. The mutekis are a conical acorn lug, not sure on the rays.
