I think with the right ride height and offset the wheels will look good.

I have a set 17x8 for my snow tires.
they are VERY VERY HEAVY.

I'd never put inexpensive rims on the evo, because they are all very heavy. Weight kills performance.

OE wheels are prolly worth more so curbing one of these won't be so hard on your ego or wallet. If you're looking for snow wheels these are better then steelies so I approve. If you're looking for a cheep wheels that look sick, get the MB battles 17x9.5 +30 or +15. They are cheap but look great. I had them on my Legacy for a long time and I loved them.

Definitely a downgrade from the stockers. These types of wheels make the Evo look cheap, either get a decent set of wheels or stick with OEM.

thanks for the advice guys....I just cancelled my order. Guess will wait more time and spend money on better rims...

I'd be sticking with oem also also get something in decent width and offsets as a 17x8 is basically same as stock.

Not a fan of those particular ones.

Feel the same way as the rest, don't downgrade.
