Yes, 18x9.5 +22 all around

 

You mentioned having 17's previously. Since the only variables that changed were wheel and tire size with the suspension remaining the same, would you mind some input?

Was there any true noticeable change in road feel?

In spirited driving, any traction benefit from your 18's vs 17's?

Do you track the car any?

 

I haven't really driven the car enough yet to answer those questions. I don't plan on tracking the car for a while, just spirited street driving for now. I changed my alignment as well with these wheels so any comparison will be dulled somewhat by that. The tires are definitely wider though so theoretically there will be more grip. I'm not going to be driving hard enough on the street though for it to really matter though I imagine.

 

I really think that the ZE40s aren't represented well as a wheel in pictures...there's so much more going on that you can see in person with the wheel and this specific color...that said when someone gets behind a camera and they know what they're doing....

Awesome build man. Makes me want to order more stuff. Lol BTW what spring size do you have on the tial qrj? And the way you have it installed is the proper position? Really like the bov and considering getting one for my X.

 

I have the 3psi (turbo) spring in it. And yes it is installed correctly, venting out the bottom. It works really well most of the time, but isn't perfect.

On another note I took the car to the mountains this past weekend. It's a blast! Drives soooo great. A friend took a nice picture of the Evo as well.

Heck yea, she looks great!

 

Thanks! This car is a dream come true for me

 

Just an update for anyone who cares

The turbo setup for the car will be changing early in the new year, and for that reason I have decided to get new hot and cold parts.

That means - if anyone is interested in things like my ARC Intake, Titanium Intake Tube, Titanium UICP, Downpipe, etc.... let me know! I will be putting all of these up for sale soon

 

clean evo sir. this thread is one to follow.

 

Things are getting real...hopefully I'm not messing too much with a good thing but I had to do this!

Also, my last exterior mod has arrived. Will be perfect to me with this on.

What an incredibly gorgeous wheel and it looks even better on the car. Excellent choice!

Hi bro I really liked your car

Am planing to go for the same wheels & specs ( without rolling front & back fenders ) but I have some questions if don't mind to help me with.

If you will use 255/40 will face any problem?

If I will cleer the hight between the tayer & fenders with 1.5" would I face the same problem of the rubbing Tyers?

What is you chamber specs?

And just to confirm you didn't use any spacers in the front or rear right?

In your opinion What would be the best spec without rolling the fenders?
