Pictures EVO wheels on my RA.

Ok this are the pictures of EVO wheels and tires on my Ralliart. And to answer the fit question They FIT but the TIRES DONT..! They will rub in the back very bad with the 235-45-17with TEIN springs drop. Probably if they where fitted with 215-45-17 and stock spring it may be ok. Here are the pics..

Sorry for the crappy resolution of my phone..

yeah i knew they fit, but beacause of the offset, that's why your getting the tire rub, i have a similar design on my Ralliart and with a 42 offset they come very close.

There are two other Evo wheel styles. MR BBS wheels and '06 Enkeis.

Looks good. Go 215-40 and it may not rub.

I wish I had 5 lugs.

I was going to trade my rims for a set of these at the dealership when I first bought my car, but they said the offset isn't right and i'd have trouble with them.

i have 17 inch rims, with i believe a 42mm offset. Running 225/45/17 for rubbers on there and the backs rubbed but i had the fenders rolled and they work fine now.. When the car is full of people i have about a finger or so of wheel gap in back.. here's a picture for an example...

O YEA i'm on stock suspension.. in fact my car is higher than normal.. too many potholes around my part of the city to lower it...

Do you have a full sideshot of the car? So the front had no probs rubbing huh? How'd you roll the rear, do it yourself or take it somewhere?

I had it rolled using a roller, you have to heat up the paint and use a special fender rolling tool that you lower your car onto and crush it between the tire and the fender and it'll roll it as you apply heat to it with a heat gun and just move the roller around it. There was one on sale on this forum not so long ago i think...
This is the best picture i can do for now.. if the weather is nice this weekend maybe i'll snap a few pictures..
