i bought rims, and springs. but ever since i wish i wouldve just lived with the stock wheels, and bought coilovers. much better for the money. IMHO

nice wheels, i would keep them
but if you can get what you paid for the wheels, and then get the coilovers for cheap. u will be making out. a nice drop on an evo does looks nice. just watch out for potholes

^ nope, all i can say is BEAUTIFUL RIMS.

I like the rims dood, but u'll be losing money if u sell your rims now..unless you havent put them on your evo yet..then u can sell it for what u bought it for. That's the only drawback to that decision in my perspective.

I have to agree that I LIKE the rims. Would go well with the apex silver too.

I wouldn't bother with the hypermax, and except for lowering the car, they're not going to be much improvement on the stock.

I say keep the wheels and if you want to lower, get springs. Don't bother with coilovers till you really need them, even then, try the MR Bilsteins. They're very good IMHO.
