no staggered wheels on evo x is that true?

[eveten]

i got a ssr sp1 with 8,5inch on front and 9.5 on the back loved the rims used to be on my s2k just traded with evo 10 and they say i cant mount them on evo it will damage the something he say is that true?

[evobros]

Ull be fine with same tire size.

[Azian]

I don't think you can do it on a Evo X Nestor. On a 8/9 I've seen it done but the AWD system on a X seems a bit more touchy.

Even with driving on the factory space saver spare you get a bucket of angry AWD system lights lit up. If the circmfrence measures out the same go for it. But measure it your self.

Had a X guy that blew up his timing chain with 80K miles of no maintenance and of course this same car was running on 245/35s in the front and 255/35s in the rear. "But they are both 35 series tires" he says. There was a 2" circumference difference. Tried our best to 'splain the problem and the gravity would not sink in. Oh wells.

Just sell them and pick up a set that wont cause any issues ... too easy...

Height, top to bottom.

so if i change tyes to the original wheels tyres but front offset and width is different from rear will that be allright?

[Mike W]

Pretty much the standard English definition.

1. the outer boundary, especially of a circular area; perimeter: the circumference of a circle.
2. the length of such a boundary: a one-mile circumference.

Wrapped a tape measure around the front tire, wrote down the number. Wrapped a tape measure around the rear tire, wrote that number down. There was 2 inches difference between the two numbers. You drive for 6 tire rotations and the rear tires travel a foot more than the fronts.

....

[speedracer2169]

We're explaining that it's not recommended to put that on your Evo besides the offset on the S2K is such a high offset that your wheel may not even clear your calipers and possibly hit inside body parts in the rear. Sell those wheels and buy your self something that actually is going to fit and work on your car properly. You have and Evo X not a Honda

[speedracer2169]

There is one possible solution to your dilemma, if they are 3 piece wheels which I'm sure they are call VR motoring and they can sell you new barrels and use the face of your wheels and make the the correct off set to work on the evo.

[eveten]

aight guys thanks for the advicesss hahaha sorry newbie on evos here. now regarding offset and width whats the best to clear out brake and fender?
