Yo I just got these put in today. I think they are sick as hell but I'll let you decide. Let me know what you think.

mmm, I was about to come bash you for putting 20's on an evo, but damn... I can't hate! Them are pretty sexy, maybe gunmetal or black with the polished lip would be my only suggestion, but VERY NIIICE

+1 for black with a polished lip but they do look pretty good as is.

Dude I'm working on it. These are a test pair so I wanted to go classic 3 piece for the first shoot. I am going to do matt gunmetal with white lips and a gunmetal racing strip. We are still testing new finishing options on the wheels.

Thanks for the compliment...

I would have gone a little more aggressive with the offset but that may not be what you're going for.

They seem to be lighted then 2 other brands of wheels. They came in 5 to 7 lbs lighter. They are 23lb's on the front and 24lb's on the back. We found that to be a good compromise between looks and performance. We are track testing them tomorrow.

Yeah I know I just didn't want to rub. The lip on the back is nice though. I will post more pics on Monday.

How realistic are these for daily use though? With such short height tires wouldn't these ding up on the first pothole encounter? I remember my brother when he was back in college constantly repairing his Racing Hart C5's because of potholes an such. Those wheels would last a good day before they got bent up around here.

You mentioned that it's heavier in the back, are you running a staggered setup? Wheels look good, but are a bit bulky in weight. though for the looks.
