Will 2001 Eclipse stock 17" wheels Fit Evo 8? Winter Setup

I'm looking now for cheap wheels for my winter wheel/tire setup. Has anyone tried an 01 Eclipse stock 17" wheel on there Evo 8 or 9? I can get a set of these rims for $100. I'm going to try it on the front wheels for caliper fitment, but was curious if anyone had driven with these. Thanks!

Nope, they won't fit!!! I tried and the hub centric ring is too big for the 17" Eclipse wheels. I'm still looking for some cheap 17" wheels for my winter set up.

How cheap is cheap? You can get a set of evo viii wheels for 3-400 these says. Pretty affordable if you ask me.

I'd love to get some evo viii wheels for 300. The problem is people here are out of their freakin minds. Here's a couple of CL ads to give you an idea: http://fortcollins.craigslist.org/pts/1813569269.html with bad tires
http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/1860582343.html with bad tires

And my favorite: I know it's for an evo X with good tires, but still:http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/1868208234.html

Anyone in CO who has evo viii wheels for around $300 with tires or not?
