Hi! I'm thinking about buying these wheels: http://www.ebay.com/itm/262420985135?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Just curious if anybody has ran this exact wheel on an evo 8/9. Does this offset clear the brembo?

Thanks

Not sure about the spacer requirement for this wheel. The +22 makes it more likely that it may not be needed. Imagine running a 15mm spacer up front resulting in a +7 offset (would not work)

Heres the workup:

Recommended / noted wheel = 18x9.5
Recommended / noted offset = +22
Recommended / noted tire = 255/35/18
Front fender work required = Not needed w/the noted 255/35 tire
Rear fender work required = Yes, rolling & slight pull needed. Bumper bolt relocation needed
Front spacer required = Unknown / not recommended due to offset
Recommended front camber = (stock -1.00 to -1.5 degree )
Recommended rear camber = (-1.50 degree)

Looks like a Rays Gramlight 57Xtreme. The Rays is about $100 less...

The Rays pricing is per wheel lol. These are like $600 for the set, shipped. Rays are like $1600 plus shipping.

Thank you, this is good information. Really wish somebody would chime in with these or even the Rays equivalents in this offset. I don't want to run a front spacer.

Yes, at +22, you are at the limit of a workable offset IMO.

Thanks, you have been a great help!

Hmm. I thought the wheel you linked was individual pricing. I would probably not run that wheel. Seems a little too cheap, even for cheap wheels, for 18's..

I won't argue it definitely seems cheap but I have heard a lot of good things about AVID.1 wheels. They are fine for a daily driven car. They won't see any abuse and I don't have deep pockets lol.

i did, only a year later but so this thread could have pictures of this setup.

Avid AV.20 +22 18x9.5
Nitto NT05 255/35/18
no spacers
clears brembo
rear rolled and slight pull and bumper relocation bolt
front no rolling necessary
​​​​​​ i live in mexico, so yeah we have potholes and they had held fine, no cracks or bent wheels.
