Default 19" HP evo question

i'm wanting to get 19x9.5 evo's on all 4 corners.

i've read the sticky and know what sizes fit but i dont know the offsets that are available and yes i've searched.

Also i've seen them with chrome/polished lips on cars but can't find them for sale does anyone know where this option is available?

I would also go with the a.z.a. brand they look identical

search for rpm 505 wheels. there were/are some on ebay. i just got some chrome 19x8.5 and 9.5. looking at them from a lot of angles looks like crap.

i definitely am not a fan of the evos because of the fake rivets. 505's look a lot better from pics i've seen. the aza ones look like the spokes are thinner to me or at least it does from aza's website pic.

I looked for HP evo's for months. Noone sells them, and they have been on backorder for a long time. Check into these alternatives:


MRR GT-1's

or

AZA Z-02's

or

Ruff racing 281's

or

RPM 505's

And just for reference, here are the HP Evo's for comparison.

Out of all them though, I think I like the MRR's the best- even better than the HP's. Thats what I ended up getting for my car and couldn't be happier

I think the RPM 505's have a little more of a curve to the spokes than the rest. What I mean is that the spokes curve out from around the center more. Make sense? Maybe Im just biased...

it doesn't look like it to me from pics i've seen but in person, the curve is very pronounced and does not look good.
