Sup guys, I just need to know the bolt pattern for a 2007 Lancer ES. I've been looking like crazy and all I have found is that the 2006 Lancer has a 114.3.

I'm looking to put Enkei EV5s in a 17 or 18 inch.

^ yup. A buddy of mine ran 18x9.5 +25 volks with a 255/35 18 tire and he was pretty low. He only had his rear fenders rolled. Everything fit well. This was on a IX

im pretty sure 18x8.5 +35 you don't need to touch your fenders. however, 18x9 +30 if you lower your car too much, it will rub.

what type of suspension you have right now?

18x9 +35 should fit with no modification as well. i think that's the size a-spec was selling RE30's in, and they said it was a perfect fit.

There are several threads on the RPF1's for info. As far as I have seen, the 18x8.5 fit, you must do modification to front fenders with the 18x9 AND use a smaller width for the rear.

Hope this is NOT a repeat:

WedsSport TC105N 17X9 35mm offset with 245/40 tire will need 3mm spacer up front to clear brake calipers and nothing in rear. NO rubbing or fender modifications required. Ride height is set with front lower control arms almost parallel(center of driveshaft to fender F=15in R=14.25in).
