In the post with the other Rota group buy, the 17x8 torques are only $598...are those any different than the ones you are offering for $680? 680 is still a good price and I just want to be sure that I buy somethin that will fit my Evo...

i also went with TDR rims. Rota is a cheap good wheel but not enough selection for the EVO yet.

yeah universal bolt patterns...anyway, if you look at the picture that SilverEvo8 posted they are 5 bolt patterned only the reason why they are available in both 5x114.3 and 5x100 is because they have the molds to make both.

so the answer would be a NO, they aren't dual drilled rims.

Frankly guys, here is the deal. I love the looks of those wheels and would have bought the Works Emotion Crs long ago but for the price. When I got a chance to get 5 sets of those, I jumped on it so I ordered them sight unseen

I don't have any more info than they are supposed to be a fitment for the EVO 8, they are 17 x 8 and in 2 colors. I got 3 gunmetals and 2 steelgreys. When they come in, I'll choose which ones I prefer and sell the rest on a first come, first served basis. I don't know if the have 10 holes or 5. I don't yet know the weight of offset. I've owned Rota wheels before and I like them. They are strong, light and much less expensive than the originals. I will no doubt curb them or scratch them. It's not woth it for me to spend thousands of dollars on a brand name wheel that's gonna get blemished soon.
When they come, I'll post more info and you guys`can decide if you want them or not
