19" Formula 1 RO_JA's on an EVO 8

I have seen these on the pepsi car but haven't heard of any other Evo that has these... why not? I think these are bad *** IMO.
Plus I wonder if they rub being so big? They say perfect fitment for the 350z, Evo 8...etc. But does anybody on here have them? Can any vendor get them, if so how much?

They haven't been on evo becuase they are ugly, heavy, and ugly once again. For the money, there are better wheels out there.

Very ture about the perofrrmance of a 19" wheel on a Evo. Most likely it doesn't make sense to put such a big wheel on for perofrmance sake. I would howevery still like to get at least an 18".

19s will slow down your acceleration off the line and rob engine power while driving. Also cost you more money when you buy tyres. It doesn’t have any benefit other than looking bling. I think 18s are a bit big IMO, why not stick with 17s?

Those things are like 600+ per wheel if I remember correctly, not worth it.
