am I the only one that really hates this style of wheel???

I have never liked wheels with a polished lip and I don't think I ever will.

it seems like there are much more important thing to be concerned with then the size of a lip of a wheel

Actually all you need is to have the same diameter wheel, you can have different widths front and rear...I've seen many people do it..Evasive's Evo with the Silver CE's Run a 19x10.5 front and 19x9.5.

i'm a little confused, 5" lip in the rear, and 4" in the front??? is this for the evo or s2k? AWD with staggered fitment?
18x10 all around, BBK fitment front causes 1" less lip.

wheels are same weights and tires will be same.

i know my AWD ;-)

Evo's arent as fussy as Sti/Wrx when it comes to the ratios tho on the wheels

damn who's the owner of that evo who's constantly getting new wheels just like you?

i like all the wheels thats being test fitted on the Evo except for the work equips. It doesn't fit the evo what so ever. new cars don't look good with old school wheels imo.
shop EvoMR ;-)


lip sizes arent the main concern, i was going for a wide stance like i had with the CCW.. and decided on an offset and just so happened those offsets yeilded 5" rear lip. i was actually going to go with a lower offset but staying safe for now.

in future we'll get negative on the offsets and have 6-7" lip Easy on the car.

i heard that on stis if you run different width tires front and rear it can affect the diffs in a very bad way. of course it has to be driven hard to stress the diffs.
