what would you consider flush? i think anything +25 and lower is pretty aggressive.

18x9.5 +22 is probably the all around fitment for EVO X. You don't have to do a lot of fender work. Aggressive fitment is when your fenders and edge of the wheels are flush with each other. In this case, 18x9.5 +15, 18x10 +10, or 18x10.5 +22, +15 or less are considered aggressive. Because these sizes/offsets wheels mounted w/ large tires will require rolling the fenders.

18x10 +35 fits fine but what baffles me is that why some vendors are pushing these wheels to their customers? yeah they fit alright, but they look absolutely wack on EVO X. And thats the truth!

That was because when we did the custom exhaust the hangers we hag made it hang to low so we used some insulated wiring to hang it up a little higher till we could fix the mounts. They were fixed the day after that pic was taken.

So the CE28N in 19x10.5 +22 would not fit stock Evo X without a spacer and fender roll?

I noted the Evasive Motorsports Evo X is slammed and also has BBK in the front, please clarify.

Thanks,

+12 offset = Just like the +22 offset, this setup also need spacers. Btw, EXTENSIVE fender rolling, shaving, or even some flaring is definitely required to accommodate those bad boys.

The spacer is to clear the strut not the brakes on +22 10.5 wheels... I used 5mm in front on my setup just for that reason.
