I have that on my car right now 9k. Next time you come to Waco we can throw one of my rims/spacers on there for you to look at. PS It DOES need a roll and trimming of the plastic at least for me but I'm a bit lower than S-techs.

Come back here with wheel width and offset and I can tell you if they will fit.

Sorry,i dont know alot about wheels.

Ok,i have chickend out of getting 20"s and have found some 18s

They are 18x8.5x 35p front/rear

I take it that as the car has 18 standard rims,these should fit?

Thx for the help guys. Got everything fitted today and they fit fine, and looks like i shouldn't have any clearance problems as there is still a 2 finger gap front and back.

Those will fit fine with some 245/40's. You might need to roll the rear fenders.

You can have a 265/35 all around with no rubbing. Id reccomend a 255/35/19.

Thanks,i dont really want to roll the fenders,just sounds hard and will add extra expense. looks like the guy wants to put on 235/40/18 .

255/40/19 is the wrong size anyway. Considerably taller than stock

Evo X is more than likely 18x8.5 +35. I'm not sure if the MR is a different size than GSR though.

no way those tires will fit with that offset wheel. You gotta get 35's.

and being lowered will mean the 255/35/19 will rub up front almost regardless of the offset. It's just not the best way to go imo. It can be made to work though.
