Will this offset clear the 08 MR Brembos?

Ok so I have a set of ADVAN 18x8.5 +50 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. Basically they came off of my 05 STI and I am not sure if they will clear the Brembos on my 08 Evo X MR. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tire info:

Federal RS 255/35/18

no. It would look like poop anyway. Stock is 18x8.5 +38.

spacers and studs. but your better off selling them (just the rims) and buying a better suited offset. the x is capable of fairly agressive offsets.

I would think the evo would look better alittle tucked in like the deep dish look rather than stick so far out.

well you run against the grain there you trend setter

I don't think many people like the look of a car with the wheels/tires all inset into the car. Deep dish is "aight" but tucked would look kinda dumb IMO.

You would need spacers about 30 mm worth

not worth it
