Hello

Where did you get that picture?

Those wheels look almost like Work Emotion's

Im guessing at the size, but i bet its this: 18 x 9.5 +25 w/a 245/35 tire

If the wheel is a 18 x 9.5 +25, that is a tough wheel to fit correctly

The +25 is a low offset & would not recommend it

those look like a 9" wheel with a +25 offset. could be 18x9.5 +20 as well

I'd guess a 235/45 tire, could be 245/40. i have 17x9 245/40 and mine don't have quite the stretch those have

Very possible a +20 or so & youre right about the tire profile. Looks higher than a 35 series

Thanks for answers

If i buy this wheels:
http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-559-Wh.../559806665.htm
18x10 [+20mm]
Possible change steering due to Large width?
One owner Evo say what - width more 8.5 is bad for steering Evo
He said - max sizes it: 18х8,5 (20-35mm) wheels & 235 tyres
What you think about it?

18x10 +20 will be very difficult to fit in the rear.

18x10 +20 can not be fitted to a stock body EvO rear

That setup pokes 17mm more than my setup!

Over fenders will be required!

Please do not buy these!

Hello Sanchess

2. An 18x10 is a very tough wheel to fit, but the real problem was the +20 offset. You can not combine the 18 x 10 w/a +20 offset. If you want to run an 18x10 the offset must be approx +35 to +38

3. The XXR-559 18x8.5 +20 is a better choice but a +20 offset will mean you will need to roll the rear fender & a rear fender pull due to the +20 offset

Installing an 18x10 will need more than a rear fender roll. You have to be willing to roll & do a rear fender pull & relocate the rear bumper bolt

See this thread here that discusses some of the issues. https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/mo...5-18x10-s.html

+20 will likely still need rolling in the rear. +35 will fit nicely in the rear, you'll just need to determine if you need a spacer to clear the calipers in the front.
