Stock Evo viii wheels
Stock Evo ix wheels

 

The 9

 

I was wanting to get some stockers to paint bronze and cant decide on which ones. Are they both the same size?

 

the IX rims....no contest. they look exactly like work emotion kai's without the concavity, and they are slightly lighter than the VIII rims.

 

i have a 8 and powder coated my stocks bronze, they look great, but i love the 9 wheels. im trying to get some money to get a set. +1 for evo 9 wheels

 

Mr Ftw!

 

Evo VII FTW!

 

Painted VIII!!! ((these are prof. painted with a black base and bronze flake over that. In low light they are gloss black, in the sun they are drk bronze))



Ya, crappy pic, I know. Its not scratched or messed up, just a crap digi cam.

I dont really like the IX or VII - but thats just my .02.

 

Yes, all are the same size and offset, be it - MR, IX, and VIII.

 

My painted VIII's. Me personally, I think the VIII stockers look waaay better than the IX's....but I do like the VII's too.

 

for stock wheels I like the IX better

 

EVO 8 wheels

 

as far the poll question - stock 9 is better
but if you add some paint to the 8, then i would have to change my answer

 

The 9 rims. For sure!

 

I used to hate the IX wheels but they grew on me!
