It will be very aggressive.....but it has been done. Forum member Bankai ran the same specs.
Sorry for the average photos, but finally got my wheels on the car.
The car is currently on Autoexe springs (came with them). Had to roll the rear guards because with 2 people in the back it rubbed badly. Have some Tein to go in as well, so may have to roll them more and the fronts, but will see.

Hey guys I was thinking about putting some WORK emotion XD9's with an 18X9 + 40 offset suspension is stock but i'm looking at putting some BC coilovers in just wondering how they would go with stock suspension temporarily ?
Have trawled through this thread and a few others to no avail - has anyone run stock Evo 7/8/9/10 rims?
I've come from a Legnum where they are a common upgrade due to their light weight, reserved JDM look and good quality.
Surprised to not see any here as they seem to be just about perfect specs of 17 x 8ish +35ish (depending on which year), has anyone tried it or have pics from somewhere else?
Stock 10 wheels are not that light but do fit with a roll. Few tanks are running the older EVO wheels I believe
It's probably because they are 17 not 18
Plenty of evo X rims on MSF...
All previous are 17's...

18*8 +45. They took 2 months from Japan, could have gone bigger but would need modding, these fit perfect..

Hey guys.
yeah wheels are really hard to come by as they're discontinued, this also made it expensive for me.
but they are a good classic wheel. Simple.
guards are definitely rolled, not flared though.
your rx8 wheels are very similar though fizzy just powder coat them and add a sticker and it pretty much looks the same.
i should've done this to save money.
