True story. Try posting in the show and shine sub forum. I promise you will get a bunch of "DUUUUUUDE DOOOOO IT!!!". "I think it would look SICKKKK". Etc

At the end of the day it's your opinion...

Buy what you want man.

Oh and people actually think that cars like that white Scion and white Z look good?? They are sickening to me.

I must be getting old

I dont like it. It does have that small wheel effect. I have seen 19 inch x 10 inch rims on an Evo X and I am convinced that those wheels give the perfect size and width for the body of the Evo X.

It's your choice and you have to live with it no matter what others on here say......
