DPE Forged Wheels!!

your running staggered widths? correct me if i'm wrong but I thought that this was terrible for awd cars. I know you can get away with staggered offsets but I thought staggered widths kills performance.

I was thinking the same thing. Staggered widths are going to render different overall diameter. Isn't this gonna wear out the transfer case. You might want to check on this before proceeding much further. Wheels look awesome otherwise.

Thats for all the complements guys! N josh thanks dude i was actually just looking at ur Evo pics and thinking the same thing. haha
But as far as the staggered set up is concern. I already have researched it since i dont wanna mess up my drivetrain and with the different specs of spacers im using and having all the tires match its not doing any harm to my drive train, but thanks for the heads up guys.
Also i dont know how much they really weigh tho with tires but im assuming around 15 lbs since they are so damn light. haha

Spacers will have nothing to do with the diameter of the tire, and as for the tires being the same size. If your rear wheels are wider, it will stretch the tire and decrease the width. They may be closer but they are not the same diameter. Find a diameter calculator and you will see.
