You 100% on that one? Nope. Not at all.

They are both excatly the same width. 8 inches. Dont beleive me? Look it up in CAPS. They both have the same dimensions (offset, width, height, back spacing)

Dont think. It is best not to answer a question that you dont know and thought a fool, than to answer and remove all doubt. (something I hear all the time )

17x8 for all USA evo's. The BBS's are forged, which in-turn weigh less. The IX enkei's weigh slightly sell than the 8's but barely.
