Yeah, well they told me the end of July, so they are correct with their 3 month estimate. LOL, I still have my current wheels but it's already getting to me as if I didnt have any wheels at all. I keep looking at the damn pictures of them!

I ordered the Work Meister M1R's in Bronze last month. Hopefully they'll be here in May like originally estimated.

18x8.5 +30 TE-37



These fit perfect even lowered on GTWorx springs / MR Bilsteins.

I love the concave look also, but not at the pain and expense of rolling fenders, crazy camber (Daily driver), or stretched tires.

mine are 17x9 +15 paired with 255/40 NT01s, and all i did was roll the rears flat and with slight pull (sealed with rust proofing and gravel guard). camber is -2.5/-2.0 so nothing crazy there either. 17x9 +22 is all you need for a good concave face, so its not as much work as you think. its worth every bit of effort IMO

the bigger question is where to find a set, cause 17x9 +22/+15 seem to be a lot less common on here than 18x9.5 +22 (another great concave setup)

Looks Great!

That's certainly your opinion, and the opinion of many - but not worth it to me. I've seen too many botched jobs and / or people that have said "heck yeah it fits perfect" but then have it tear up a tire when you hit steering lock in a parking lot. Plus I prefer 18" on the Evo, and a 9.5 likely calls for 265's and I didn't wanna go that wide for a daily driver either.

After going over all 36 pages, I can not believe that in a thread like this some of you guys are not posting tire sizes. Yes it is a TE37 thread, but without tire size everyone guesses the fitment. POST your info
