Need your opinion guys on the new rim setup im going to buy soon.....its going to be my first set going this wide.....they are 18x10 with a 35 offset. my evo has stock fenders, i know i will have to roll the rear fenders and camber the front to tuck these rims.....they told me these are 10mm less then a 18x9.5 with a 20 or 22mm offset and should be fine.....i getting my coilovers next week and he said it might work with my tein s-tech springs & stock shocks but will be really close for now......any info will help...thanks

How about a Volk RE30 18x10.5 18mm offset up front with fenders rolled, pulled and lowered slightly? lol Yeah, I know, its probably a reach. I have a couple on the way to test fit. This is for an 06 Evo thats going to be used in a motorsports project.

nope you really dont. When I bought those wheels I thought that the OEM offset and size would be perfect, but I didn't compensate for the fact that the spokes were angled and thus it comes into contact with the caliper. What you see there is with the ichiba 5mm spacers and a 0.40mm gap. been like that since earlier this year and been pretty lucky so far
Want to buy some advan RS or RZ gold but unfortunately it'a way out of my pocket.
If you're gonna use advan wheels you can't go more than probably 31 ET. other than that the spokes will be close.
