I like it bro! Did you have to shave the fender or the flares to clear them?

Looks really good! Perfect tire fitment. Doesn't look extremely stretched like everyone else 225 picks on that width.

Im going to have to shave the flares about 1/2" in the top of the wheel opening. My quarter panels are already cut/folded up and "rolled" so I dont think it will be an issue. If it is, I can throw another degree or two of negative camber into it.
nice! my set is the same size but with 30 offset.

Those are a prefect choice. The red is a great color choice too.

Looks great you'll definitely need to cut the flare lips
I see your rusty axles! Some stainless steel cotter pins will dress it up :D

not really. the closest EVO wheels would be the EVO8MR wheels and they r split 7 w/ no concave...

totally forgot about those evo ix wheels... sorta look like the cr-kais but look much different in 3/4 because of the concave and more gradual sweep into the lug/hub area.

I like them. +25 without the flares probably looks gnarly. You're car's "ballerness" is now complete brotha!

I wanted the +20 offset but they are discontinued, the next one up is a 9.5" wide and a +20 offset, no way in hell that would fit without heavy modifications to the 1/4's or raising the rear enough that at full shock compression it wouldnt touch. They make a 9.5" in a +38 and +30 but neither of those clear the brembo's and I didnt want to stretch tires either. Right now im on a 235 and I think I can squeeze a 245 in there too, maybe next year. 255 would make it with more camber but that kinda defeats the purpose
