Brand new 17x9.5 Enkei NT-03M +38 offset
These are the kind Robispec and Hotlap sells. These fit without spacers on Evo's. You can run 275 series rubber with minor fender rolling in rear. I have decided to go with a different set of wheels instead...Special black chrome finish.
Brand new in box. Comes complete with center caps etc. Boxes opened just for pics/examination
Located in Iowa - I will do $1000 shipped + paypal fees.

Its almost black, a shiny blackish finish is how I describe it. I like it better than gloss black which when dark cannot be seen at all or flat black which looks like its been rattle-canned. They look great on white Evo's, my good friend has the same wheels on his wicked white and they look hot...Can post a pic if you want!

By the way, do you happen to know what thickness spacers are required for running 255 40 17s and 275 40 17s? I'm wondering whether I'd have to put on studs longer than the RB ones I have now. I remember from reading others' posts that spacers are required with these to fit the wider size tires (to keep them off the springs in front), even though the rims themselves will clear the calipers.

You can run 255 and 275's without spacers. 255's fit fine, no fender rolling required. For 275's, you need to roll rear fenders. That is the beauty of this wheel, really.
You can run 5mm spacers front and rear like my buddy does to keep them away from suspension when you lower a lot and add camber. No studs required for 5mm spacers!

lol - I know what you mean - this is about the best wheel to get for all practical purposes. I have 17x8.5 SSR's with 255 for street use. These were for track use only, but I am going to go with diff wheels now.
