    Evo 8 Enkei - What do I need to do?

    I searched and found some info, but not sure what I would need to do to make these fit. My car is stock except for A-Spec suspension. Will these fit on my car?

    The stock Evo wheel is 17" x 8", 35mm offset, 5x114.3 mm bolt circle, 67mm centerbore.

    Stock tire size is 235/45R17.

    I don't remember what fits an EP3, but there's the important information for those who know.

    all you need is a 04-05 or rsx conversion (forgot what yr your car is) and the oem spec evo lug nuts and youll be good! there the perfect offset... you can run some 245/40's up front and clear and 235/45 in the rear on aspecs... if you go lower tho youll need a roll :D

    235/45/17 will work great on the aspec. Also grab some hub rings.

    Word. Thanks guys. I'm already 5 lug because the car is a 05. So just need the wheels and lugs. Probably going to run 235/40 all around. Want to stick with same wheels as it's my daily driver/commuter. What is a hub ring?

    I'd do a 45 profile we have plenty of clearance with the aspec setup.

    Hubcentric rings exist because not all bore sizes (the center of the wheel, where the center cap goes) are the same sizes. As such, the wheel will slide around minutely as opposed to sitting snugly against the wheel hub. Hubcentric rings exist to fill in that space.

    All you need is flat seat lug nuts and the hub rings (link provided above). Roll your fenders to be safe.

    I'm gonna repost my car with evo's 2 years ago with 235/45/17 on tein coils, since the offset is perfect for an OEM wheel out there.

    Love the look. Hopefully I'll be picking up a set of these this week. Do you have a side shot / more pics of your car? Could you tell me if the Mitsubishi emblem is removable?

    the emblem is a cap and can be removed. I can try and post some side pics.

    They damn near look better on an EP3 than they do on the Evolutions.
