I finally got my hp evos. these rims are amazing. the pics do not do them justice. If any remembers this thread i started a while back: https://ls1tech.com/forums/wheels-tires/633727-anybody-like-these-rims.html. old pics are in there. Just curious, whats the psi I should put in the tires?

Wheels look very nice. Why are you changing to 295's.....do the 275's look too narrow (stretched)? I was looking at the Dunlops too. Do you have a pic taken from the front or back looking down the side of the car?

yea they are a bit too narrow, but im not gonna change them out any time soon. the thread on them is still good. they are not too narrow, here is a pic of them from the back.

yea i agree, but the lip is just too good to pass up. ccws and iforged have the same lips but they are twice the price. i think the 295s would make them look wider.

Ya they should, but 295 is kinda dangerous with that small of a rim, dont do any high speeds or fast cornering when/if you get them.......
