I wanted to take a minute and thank Dan at wheeldude.com for taking care of me with a great set of wheels/ tire combo. Lana needed new shoes for her return to the streets. I will be documenting the wheels performance at the track. I will be detuning the car slightly and will be running it at the track with a full street tire. Super professional and very prompt btw. I will take pics of the car in its completed form in a few weeks. Just getting the last few details worked out. Anyways, thank you very much Dan for a great looking wheel at a great price and for being truly professional. No more tirerack for me

I'm between choosing the DPTs or Grids for an MR. I want to use 255/40/18 or 265/35/18 on Swift spring lowering (1.0/.6) and I do not want to roll the fenders. May be interested in green Grids.

What are your thoughts and which wheel is lighter?

I do not recommend the 255/40/18 tire size for an Evo X, this tire size is a bit tall and will rub at full lock turns (due to the tall height, will scrub near your sideskirt). I highly recommend 265/35/18 tires for both the Grid and DPT. We have tons of customers running this exact setup with Swift lowering springs and there is no rubbing 99% of the time The Rota DPT is our lightest 18x9.5 wheel however the Grid and Torque aren't too far behind
