Evo Wheels Rims [Merged 5-9] wheel wheels rim

[Wilsonman02]

I'm looking to get some Evo Vll wheels for my 1G. Anyone have them or have pics of them. Just want to know what people thought of them, i think they'd look good.

 

[TKreander]

I'm about to buy a set of 17" wheels from an EVO VI, and I would appreciate some help.
The rims have 38 offset and 225/45/17 rubbers on them. Will they fit my 1G GST with an inch drop??

 

[thehyena]

i think so

I was wondering if the wheels on the Evo 8 will fit on a 1G DSM? I can get some but I don't know if they'll fit, I've heard they're too wide to fit on the car. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

[BOMEX DSM]

They will fit the evo wheels are 17X8 they will fit perfectly if u get the tires that would be awsome they come with sticky yoko ADVANS. Anyways hope that helps

 

[Street Dreams]

It definitely helps, thank you very much, maybe I'll get to be the first DSMer to put Evo 8 wheels on a 1G. Thanks alot man.

evo wheels are enkeis RS-6 with a mistubishi center cap...its cheaper just to buy the rs-6 i seen them run for a set of 17's with tires for 880 on the internet shipped to your door and buy the caps from mistu....

while we are on the subject, i kinda like the EVO VII wheels. i saw a set kinda like those on a black 1g in the gallery a while back. does anyone know what brand etc.... they are?

 

[me612]

they are not rs-6's. my friend has an evo, and my other friend has a prelude with rs-6's on it, they are totally differen't. And plus it seems most enkei's are usually 17x7, and the evos are 17x8. also the evo wheels have bigger holes for the lugnuts, me and 2 other friends have enkeis, and the holes for the lugs are pretty tyte, and so when we take out our lugs, sumtimes we nick the rims leavin little scratches which is really annoying. anyway, ya they are NOT rs-6 rims

 

[Street Dreams]

I'm not particularly smart with wheels... I don't even understand how 16's are actually 17" across, call me dumb, but I measured a 16" wheel from very angle, and couldn't find 16 inches anywhere, maybe they just round. But what is offset? I hear the evo 8 offset wont fit on my car can anyone tell me what the offset should be for a 1g, the offset for the evo 8, and what offset is? thanks for your guys help.

Don't know about the offset but if you do pick them up and they are the right offset you can find spacers to use if they are too wide. Many turbo FWD DSM's run the 3rd generation RX-7 wheels and use spacers. The RX-7 wheels are 16x8.

Does anyone have pics of the Evo 8 wheels on a 2G Eclipse? If possible on the Emerald Green color, I want to get an idea of how they look before I buy them. Do they look good or no?

Thanks,
Chris

 

[JiveMasterT]

i was thinking of getting them myself, and i think they would look good for sure. but i changed my mind on the color scheme and decided to go with all black. i definately get a pic of them and photo shop them onto your car if i was you tho.

anyone know how much do the stock 2003-2004 evo 8 wheels weight?

 

[Daedalus]

You could ask, or search here: http://www.evolutionm.net

Great site, I'm sure it has been discussed before.

*edit* I did the searching for you... 21.1lbs. Hope this helps.

 

[Twizzle]

theyre also 17x8 which is amazing for a stock tire..

 

[ITSME4G63]

Yeah, I was thinking bout puttin them on my car, what you guys think?

 

[Attack Eagle]

Too heavy for what they will end up costing you.
now if they were free or sub 400 for the set, I'd say go for it, still 5 lbs lighter than a 97 GSX rim.

You can find 17-19 lb rims all day for 500-800 a set.

 

[InsaneTalon]

Hi, I looked around and didn't see any info on Evo 8 wheels fitting 2g cars and was wondering if someone could tell me?
Thanks

 

[wret]

Same lug spacing, +35mm offset. Should fit.

 

[EnticivEclipse]

does anybody have pics of these on?

 

[PaulPDX]

Fits 1G, why wouldn't it fit 2G? shouldn't be a problem.

 

[2gGSX]

Request photochops in the photochop forum

[Wildflyer897]

don't quote me on this but isn't the evo a four lug setup unlike our 5 lug?
