I looked into those but it says it only fits for evo 8/9 and mine is a 10. And if i do get those i will prolly have to stay with 18"s correct. i like the low profile look but i dont want it super thin.

I'm on Swift Spec R's and they are really nice. Slight gap, but very small. Running Rota Torques 18x9.5 +22 wrapped in Falken Fk452's which are 265/35/18. No fender roll needed

Do you happen to have a picture? i am just worried about lowering it because around here the roads can be crappy and some driveways are high. How low do your springs drop you?

What is this set up wheels size offset and lowering springs? If not do you still have that ugly gap in the wheel wells.

I answered this for you earlier on this page. You will not have any issues and no fitment issues or rubbing. I'm running Torques that are 18x9.5 with 265/35/18 Falken FK452s lowered on swifts
