They are 17s and clear the brembos no problem. BUT, they are pretty curbed up. Perfect for winter rims. Also, they are quite heavy. You would be better off to install your drag radials on your stock wheels as they would be much lighter than these.

I have my own personal stock wheels, but I use them as winter wheels. My snows are on them. Search around on here, people sell stockers pretty cheap.

I'll be there for sure, I just don't know if it'll be in my evo, or if I'll have a different evo, or if I'll be riding in Tyler's rally Impreza.

And he drove my car 20% of the time while I filmed, but he was driving when we were pulled over, and he got the ticket haha. He told me all about your car, I'm excited to see it.

Yeah I gave Tyler and his girl Ann a ride but couldn't get my aem to allow the antilag to work. So I had to launch it while just reving it I think he liked it I want to ride in his impreza once its done and do some rally. He was telling me you guys did some snow rallying this past winter in it couple snow banks haha sounded like fun. I am going to be giving him my old 1G talon to be his next project. later, Curt

for those who are bored on Sunday, and are around the Dayton Ohio area. I will be doing a new set at Wiley's Comedy club, and they are filming that night as well, so the more people out there, the better I guess Practice/Practice/Practice is what I need, but come on out if your in the area. Thanks in advance.

Mention my name when you make reservations so it's only 1 or 2 bucks. Kevin Butterfield

You ever get bored and want to practice....feel free to snap some of my car.

HELP WANTED ! !

I have a set of rear coil overs that the lower mounts will not break loose. I've tried soaking them in BP Blaster, heating them mildly with a heat gun, torquing on them with a 2 foot extension on the spanner wrench. I even beat on them with a soft rubber mallet. All to no avail.

If anyone has some "tricks" I am all ears.

Saw a wingless silver Evo VIII today on Fields Ertle by the Best Buy and the Verizon. Had 3 or 4 ppl in it, looked lowered. Clean car, anyone on here?

Have fun with the build.
