Dont know how to buy rims?
Hey guys. So i am looking to buy new rims for my 08 evo x. A couple interest me mainly the rota g force. thing is i have no idea how to go about this. I know the stock rim is 18x8.5 with a +38 mm offset. I have a 245/40/18 tire. Now i am looking for rims so I do not have to do any modification. It is stock suspension as well.

What about this rim. It's a little bit wider so a 18x9 and a 30 mm offset http://www.aspecwheels.net/index.php...product_id=156

This would be a better offset...would be more flush

18x9 +30 fits great. 245 tire is fine, and a 255 works well here too.
18x9.5 +25 is a great fit, although a 245 tire is technically stretched on this you'll be OK. 255/265 is a better fit depending on tire brand.
Anything bigger and you're looking at some work generally.

Also you have to be aware in that our brake calipers are very wide, and even though the offset maybe low, you could still run into a potential problem with them hitting the side of the calipers. For example the XXR 521 in a 18x10 +25 offset still require a 25mm spacer to clear the calipers.
