Picture of 17 inch Mille Miglia evo5

Can someone please post me a picture of a 4 gen with 17 inch mille miglia evo5. I am in the process of getting new rims and I can decide on 17 or 18. The 18 evo5 are heavy and will hurt my performance but I definalty decide on the evo5. I have h&r / agx setup and would like to see how it would look. Thanks

I decided on these too but Im definetly going with the 17's...You have think that 18's will also kill your brakes..I think 17's are perfect mix between looks and performance...Its not just the weight of the 18's but the rotaional force thats needed to turn em

You'll wish you had 18's or 19's once you get the 17's. I should have bought my Evo5's in 19", I regret getting only 18"

evo's are great looking rims, but i think too many people have them now, look at a few alternatives from racing hart, they make great rims too(racing hart CR)

No problem...

...if you love them, get them. You won't see anyone around your area who has the same rims. Only guys on the org have them, and we are all scattered around the country

The 17's look pretty good on the car...Im still kinda confused if I should get 17's or 18's ?? Do you have a drop with the 17's on that white max or stock height ??

Your wheel weighs 26 lbs a piece w/o tires.

I just called the Tire Rack and found out. Thought you would like to know (since I didn't)

Thanks for the pic qikenuf. That looks good. I just wish tire rack will process my damn order. I ordered two days ago and they are still processing my damn order because I'm getting them send to another address.

I like my 17" rims....i decided not to lower it because i heard you loose ride quality. You get to where you do not notice the gap.
