Lesson learned. Don't be stupid!!

These wheels don't need spacers. I have same exact wheels on my evo now.

That's weird. There's a 10mm spacer on there. Is there a possibility the rotors are different?

Why would you want to do donuts in an evo on dry pavement?

I have. And they hit. But I did it on the opposite wheel. This wheel I've never touched.

Why do donuts on dry pavement? Good question. why not? Haha. Snow doesn't exist and I don't like driving in the rain. The real answer is "I'm stupid"

Well there you go, now get motivated and fix that Evo. Don't get rid of it because you messed up

What spacers did you use? Bolt on or slip on? Oem studs? Theres plenty of videos and pics about what happens to bolt on spacers under hard launches. If youre going to run the same wheels again, get extended arp studs and spacers from Map, you wont regret it. Im running this setup a year now and no issues

Damn dude, some lessons have to be learned the hard way, fix her and don't dump her off on some unsuspecting person.
