Wheel opinions for Evo X?
 
Have enough leftover savings to get wheels and tires for the Evo.

Narrowed it down to 3 choices.
(My X is white for the record. Pictures coming this weekend)

Anyways... wheels!

I agree w/ TE but out of the three I like the Work Emotion CR Kai rims the best.

Because, and its lame to say, they're a stock wheel.
I want a little more aggressive fitment than the stock mr wheels.
18 x 9 undecided on offset's and what I can and can't run with the brembo's.

I like the black rims with red pin stripe 2. The Ralliart (your car is evo not ralliart model) and hated that Work emotions IT IS OLD SCHOOL.
remember the new style of rims on 2009 is should match the color of your car.

try putting Gun Metal or White rims. I prefer white rims with red or blue pin stripes
there is also powedered Milk color rims on this site

REMEMBER DO NOT BUY GOLD,BRONZE or other colored rims for your White Evo X. they don't match with a White car

the only rim color that will not look so cheesy are Silver, Gun Metal and black rims
BBS Stock rims are Nice they're called Spider Spoke and the color dark silver.
You should have bought them and painted professionally but dont buy 19 inch wheels So it wont look like your a truck.

the 18 inch wheel is perfect for the speed of the Evo X you go higher that 18 your Evo X will perform different. trust me I've been there and done that

The way the Work Emotion's are colored, it actually accents white perfectly.

Look at this web site? http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?p=3307274

A kid posted pics about, which is the best rims for his white car. He is actually pretty good on pairing the rims and with a white car.

take a look. But I still recommend a White w/ pin stripes or Gun Metal . trust me it will be a CHICK MAGNET.\

By the way DO NOT BUY the same tire brand from the old stock rims. I heard alot of complaints about the Thread does not last Long after 6,000 miles it tends to be BALD.

so be careful what tires to buy for your Evo. I am not sure what tire brand on your stock wheels. I had a problem with my Yokohoma tires it is good on rain or wet roads but when it comes to snow I was sliding all over. doesn't grip well on snow.
