Thanks! Been on the car a few weeks now and I'm loving the setup. I do need wider tires, but all good for now.

Thanks! Trying to determine what to do next? I want to do a turbo upgrade, but want a super reliable complete kit that has zero issues.

I'm going to recommend CBRD's new setup with their BBK Turbo and manifold.
I'll make some more recommendations once you tell us what it took to get the wheels to fit.

It was actually easy. Went to GMG is Orange County. Did the fender rolling / adjustments and some camber work with the coil-overs. I would have no problem with a 275 tire. There is zero issues with rubbing and I could go lower with the Cusco's, but no need. The handling is perfect.

Thanks for the info! If you want more help with the turbo kit, PM me or start a separate thread so we don't clutter this one with tons of off-topic discussion.
I'll say it one more time: your car looks amazing. So different from most Evos and a really refined but aggressive look.

I'll send you a PM w/questions. I'll be working with AMS for the Turbo upgrade. I need to work with a Tuner that I can trust and they have a ton of experience, etc.

Definitely NOT painting them. Random question - Can you resurface rims with a finish like this? To touch up scratches, chips, etc...NO curb rash, but a few small scratches and nicks on each wheel?

yes you can! use the silver wheel paint that you can buy from Kragen, I used it before on my BBS LMs and it perfectly matched. Im pretty sure it has the same color or very close match.

Let me know if you wanted some I still have the can here, we can touch it up and me check out your ride!

Thanks! I had the lower / non SSS wing and did not like it. Also, I'm definitely going for a sleek/clean look with this car. So many people ask "what kind of car is that"? Loving the EVO. Need a bit more power and I'm good...!
