I like to ask you did you finish it off under the tires under wells? Because i seen some other custom wide body work that when you look under it is not finish!
BTW: nice WORK can't wait to see it finished!

I've run 285's on 18x10 wheels for a long time with no driveline problems. Have you broken a trans and rear end from running wide tires on your EVO?

You could also move the hinge to the top of the door instead of the side so that it flips up like a "gull wing" door on an old Mercedes.
Good luck!

i've only had 235/40 18 on 18x8.5 rims the rims in the pic are new haven't had chance to run them yet but i've never had any problems with drivetrain parts yet (knock knock) i'm more concerned bout 285 on front due to the turning tight and rubbing... how are yours as far as turning?

You could run an articulated hinge (like on some cabinets) so that as the door rotates out the hinge axis moves out (moves toward you if you are looking straight at the fuel door). Hope that makes sense. . .

With proper coilovers and wheel offset, the 285's will not rub at all. They are actually a little smaller diameter that the stock tires so that helps clearance. If you are going with wide front fenders then you won't have any trouble. If not, then with that offset you will need to do some rolling work to the front fender lips or not lower the car too severely.
