Thank! I decided on 17's over 18's they are 17x9.5 +38 I know the rpf1 is played out but it was the best wheel for the price and lightest, I'm happy with them. Even happier I decided to not buy Rotas(nothing against them).

I wasn't messing with you, sorry if it came off that way. I spend all money and time and efforts under the hood. I don't really know alot about the esthetics of the evo's so much if im being honest here even tho I've owned 3 of them lol. But mechanically wise im your man Im just now finally starting to get into esthetics because my engine is exactly how I want it now. Im starting with a front bumper. I'll be swapping out my stock IX front bumper with a "Walker" bumper followed up by a JDM rear

Don't apologize man it was funny regardless lol. I JUST starting caring about aesthetics. I'm more of a function type of person myself. What is a walker bumper btw?

been staring at ebay seats for about 6 months.prolly e-mailed twenty venders asking about weight. just couldnt get solid answers. these things are drop shipped so no one really knows. finally said WTF and pulled the trigger. gotta say I am more than pleased.. hard to believe these are so nice for so cheap. I was after the lightest, comfy recliner I could find. less than 28lbs with sliders. seat itself is 23.5lbs.

Those look esthetically nice, really nice actually. How do they feel on your rear? Are they comfy too?

they feel like any other nice recaro my rear has sat in. very solid and very compfy. I spent 1200 hundred on a set of sparco roadster seats ten years ago. I was not too happy with the cheap fabric they cover them with. no where near automotive grade material. and they havent held up that great. these 260 dollar seats defi economics. the quality is seriously nice. my only complaint would be stitch lines not as straight as they could be. other than that they are the seat bargain of the century if you ask me. cipher auto sells this same seat for 560-630 for a pair depending on what its covered with. cpa2001 and people are very happy with cipher seats at their price.

Wow!! Nice find man. I have a 2006 IX with the SSL package so I have the nice leather but its finally starting to show its age. I've been looking for a nice set of used MR SE seats with the red stitching for replacements because I really like the look with the red stitching but if they offer those seats you just got but in leather I think I would order them right now do u know if they do leather? Even "pleather" would be ok. Idc if it's real leather or not honestly.

Needs to be lifted some more. I'm not certain if those wheels will rub a little bit in the back.
