okay , so after I done search, I found that the 19's SUPERTURISMO LM will fit evo 9 without problem cuse there is an avilabe 38+ ofset in this size .
the 18's wheels wont fit cuse min ofset is 48+ , so ineed to put spacers (10 mm) so that size can fit my evo 9 . am I right ??

Offset depends on width. The stock wheels are +35 and 8" Wide. Going wider than 8" with the same offset will add wheel to each side equally. Higher offset will bring the wheel in more, lower will move it closer to the fender.
+48 is def too much and the shape of spokes to get that offset will probably hit the calipers.

The fine majority of us here frown on wheel diameters larger than 18". Please dont get too serious about the 19's. Find another wheel please (17" or 18") They are just too large for a stock body EVO 8/9

2012 evo octane blue looking for wheels, help!
I have a EVOX octane blue fully stock just got it less than a month ago. Im looking to get different rims for it because i feel the stock ones are too small. I am still looking for forged wheels like the stock ones. Black in color either a gloss or powder coat. If i have to get new tires so be it, but i will not get lowering springs because i live in buffalo ny and we dont have friendly driveways anywhere for lowered cars. Stock tires 245/40 R18 18" wheels. i like the low profile look so i figured it would be better to up to 19" wheels. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

you can use variable nuts to fit the wheel if these wheel are available in another pcd but with ofset that does not require spacers .
for example , if that wheel is available in 18x8 et 35 but with 5x112 pcd , you can use variable nuts to fit those wheels to the evo instead of using oem nutts (5x114.3) , and then they will fit without using spacers .
