GG Evo IX + X MR BBS Wheels - Quick Shots
Wheels are dirty and just used a point and shoot - but I wanted to get some pics up!
Quick info:
Wheels: Evo X MR BBS 18x8.5 +35
Tires: Stock Evo X tires 245/40-18
Suspension: Stock IX Struts + Swift Sports
Brakes: Stock
Compared to stock IX wheels/tires
Offset: 6.35mm more aggressive (distance off hub)
Rolling Diameter: ~1.54% (9.9mm) larger
Will be switching to 255/35-18 Dunlop Z1* rubber probably over the winter.
I'll post shots with a real camera when I get a chance!!!

omg thats exactly what i want on my evo and pretty close to the evo I've always wanted to own. GG MR Se or a white IX RS are my two all time favorites to own. I've been wanting those wheels for a while for my car.

Thanks
The car is a GG SE (non-MR). The VGs are a CF piece from a company called TiTek that I put on recently.

I meant to do this last night but couldn't find a scale :-\ I do plan to weigh the entire packages eventually to see the overall difference.
Based on some quick searching I *think* the stock IX SE wheels are mid 17lbs and the X MR wheels are ~19lbs.

^^ Swifts have been on for a very long time.
Thanks for the compliments everyone! Hopefully this weekend I'll get some high quality pics up.

Looks sweet, would look cool powder coated black, always think black and GG = perfecto.
Anyways, definately a nice setup.

I am going to consider powder coating. Black, Gunmetal and Mag Blue would all be considered. Mag Blue would probably be my first choice.
