which evo rims be more specific! and also learn how to search this info is already on evom.

evo x stock
GSR Enkei: 18x8.5 +38 ~22 pounds
MR BBS: 18x8.5 +38 ~19 pounds
Centerbore/hub size: 67.1mm

All 2008+ models
Lug pattern is 5x114.3
Lug nut thread/pitch - 12 x 1.5
Offset is 46mm.
Center hub is 67mm.
ES
Stock tire size is 205/60/16
Stock tire is Yokohama AVID S34B
Wheel is 16x6.5

IMO yes you could run evo x rims on your ES if you were to get tires with a sidewall of at most 45% i would run a 35% sidewall height on them im not sure of clearance on the ES but the 2 inches of extra width may affect clearance so you may have to roll your fenders but im about 80% sure it will be possible. Also another thing from upgrading 16" to 18" would be alignment and your speedometer will be off so you'll have to get those adjusted.

Yes although you will probably need to roll the rear fenders. I've seen a thread here with pictures. However they're a little too big for a lancer. You might be better off with a different set of wheels.

to roll you gotta like cut heat it up and pretty much roll it back right

No, rolling involves a rolling machine that physically flattens the little protrusion on the inside of the fender.

Funny story about rolling fenders. My friend did his the "ghetto way" took an aluminum baseball bat, wedged it in between the fender and the tire (his old tires of course) pushed and rolled, then pulled and rolled. The problem he had was getting a consistent roll, they didn't look half bad i would definitely not recommend this to anyone lol. He was just lazy didn't want to pay a shop to do it nor buy/rent a roller. Don't take the cheap way out if you're going to roll!
