The Ultimate Aggressive Wheel Thread... Evo X Style
#4730
Will post updated pictures with tires soon but I’m too excited to wait and want to share these with you guys!
18x10.5 +0 I’m going to make a bold statement and really hope that this doesn’t get shot down. I’m not trying to be egotistical or anything like that. I had these wheels custom built so I could run the most aggressive 10.5 wheel under a stock body Evo x without spacers. I did tons of research before I had these built and I couldn’t find anyone more aggressive than @Mangoes but he used a spacer. Really hoping I’m the first to run the most aggressive 18x10.5 wheel without spacers, but we’ll see.
About an inch of poke in the front
About a half inch in the rear
SevenK did an amazing job designing these.

i cant really speak English , but as far as i can see the word of "fit" means something different for you. To me, clearly doesnt fit.
i think the most i would use on the evo, if i dont auto cross, the 10 inch with a way lesser offset. Something like +20.
my personal opinion the best looking fitment, and good for weekend racing so as street driving the 18-9.5 with +22 off set. anything more in these cases will not give you any more benefit.
also in my opinion everything agressiver than that, doesnt even look better. Simply because it wont flash nicely with a car shape.

The car is actually PB and wrapped in yellow pearl with one spoke matching. I rarely drive my Evo and rotate wheels (and wrap) to keep an interest in the car.

I think your definition of what is aggressive is would be more appropriate with the stance crowd.. lowering the offset for the sake of making it more "aggressive" in your mind is fine if that is what you are into. From a functional standpoint, you are depriving the car of less wheel/tire being actually tucked into the wheel well. You will only end up running more camber and the car's handling will suffer instead of improve. Furthermore, you will have to run a stretch tire. For a 10.5 rim a proper tire would be a 285/30 but even most folks that run 10.5s do not even do this... again because they are just dropping the offset on the wheel they choose for the sake of making them fit. Hence a thinner tire is required so they end up with 275s.
+1, the one set up that comes to mind in 18x10 +20 would be a set of CE28SLs. They clear the calipers up front on both the 9 and X. The X will accommodate them better given the larger size of the fenders compared to the CT9A.
