wedsports sa-55m's, rota grids (or te37's if you have the cash), ce28n's, enkei rpf-1's all look good on the X (and are the most popular choices).

I would suggest browsing the Evo X Show and Shine section until you find a setup you like There are literally thousands of wheels that will fit and it all comes down to your needs/goals for the car, wheel style you are after, color you want, etc..

As a starting point.. Are you after a wheel to simply replace OEM for day to day use? A wheel for daily driving & track use? Are you on a tight budget or can you spend $3K on a set of wheels? We need more info or else you are going to get a HUGEEE list of wheels

Don't get PF01, ugliest wheels ever made. People here are only making that suggestion because they want you to go through the hassle to be the first one to wear a ugly low offset aggressive setup. I only know of one other RR Evo X that brought PF01 and was unhappy with them because the spoke design was super flat. The hub pad on that wheel is ridiculously deep.

Here's a sample of Matte Grey WEDS SA-55M 18x10 +18 on 265/35R18

Wedsport SA-55M's are real nice, but aren't they all painted finish? I hear they chip easily, and so do the RPF-1's. Both are great lightweight choices though
