why do you say this rims dont work? reason... I am not planing on tracking the car on this wheels.. I am getting one piece wheels for that.. this are two piece wheels.. and they are more for looks and to stand out.. you dont see alot of GT7 around specially on an EVO

The red lip doesnt work at all. Its way cheesy in my opinion.

If you like it then roll with it.

i dont think anyones hating, to just be honest the wheels are ugly man, and they look cheap, theyre not ugly because they look cheap.. they just dont look right especially on the car everything from the style to the lip. as suggested before stick with your OEM wheels or sell those and get some better looking ones. they look like they should be on a civic.
