Thumbs up on the build. I am just starting to mod my 2014 MR (Cosmic Blue) and have similar goals in mind.

Your going to be happy with the Pilot Super Sport tires. I have them on my BBS stock wheels and they are pretty awesome!

You should have come out to the Meet and Cruise to Richmond man and actually hung out with other EVO owners

Alas, winter seems to finally be over here in the tri-state area




Volk CE28N 18x10.5 +18 w/ Michelin PSS 275/35





Thanks to tirestickers.com for letting me test out their new product!! I'll keep you guys posted on how they hold up





The wheels look a little awkward right now - I'll need to go 0.5"-0.75" lower and dial in some more neg camber.





Voltex CF Gurney flap installed as well!





JDM HKS Kansai CF Spark plug cover from japanparts along w/ OEM aluminum valve cover (2010+ came with plastic valve cover). I'm still debating on getting my calipers painted yellow and the valve cover to match





Michelin windshield banner.. I realize the look isn't for everyone but I like it #becauseracecar

Was curiously waiting to see the new wheels and fitment. The Volks look tasteful as always and they always look good on Evos. The wheels are not as flush with the car as I would have hoped but that gives me a very good idea on how big I need to go in my setup. Good post!

I think the wheels look great! Just dial in the ride height a bit more.

It won't be too long before I convert mine back to summer mode, now you've got me anxious!!

Looks awesome! Reminds me of 311RS model. Regardless, still awesome, aggressive looking car. Great taste on mods.

Thanks guys! I got my fenders rolled yesterday by chunkymr and alignment at RedlineSpeedworx, no more rubbing!

Alignment settings:

-2.6 front camber
-2.3 rear camber
1/32 rear toe out

How many miles on the wheel stickers? Feel like they are holding up so far? Any impressions?

Looks great.
