SOM SS with HP Evo's?? Where can I get them? Get something else?
Hey everyone just like the title states... does anyone have pics of HP evos on SOM SS camaros? I am tryin to find a new wheel and tire package and these have caught my eye. Any other suggestions? Oh and where can I get these wheels? do they make wider than 9.5? thanks for the help and any advice is appreciated!

I think 9.5 is the widest you can go with. Ive heard that they are discontinued, and then ive heard that some places still have them? I really dont know for sure. There are a few options out there that are very close in overall design.
Like these TSW Snetterton's. I'd take a guess and say that they are better quality then the HP wheel (also 18x9 pr 19x9.5) Theres a member on here with them on his silver WS6 and in my opinion, they look killer. Take a look-
Hope he doesn't mind me posting his gallery....

Good luck finding EVOs (now called Lightning) anywhere, HP Design and every vender I called is out of them. Your best bet would be eBay or the for sale section. I tried to find a set for about 2 months and ended up going with the RPM 505s. I have no way to verify, but I was told by one vender that the 505s and Lightning’s are made by the same manufacture. The 505s just omit the rivets for licensing purposes; they look exactly the same besides that fact.
BTW, the widest the 18" are available in are 9". I read in another thread that someone was looking for 19" 505s but they were sold out everywhere, I wasn't in the market for 19" so I never asked.

The RPM 505s are SIMILAR, but not the same. If you take a look at the way the center piece is shaped (the mesh) you will notice that on EVOs its more flat, as opposed to being a bit more rounded off on the RPM 505s.
Do you have any pics of the RPMs on your car?

he is right the EVO are sold out all over, SO i got a REVO in Hypersilver for 179 in the 18x9
and a set of Nitto555 275/35/18 I paid a little too much for the Nitto's 234 but
I did get a deal on the REVO's and they threw in the lugs, shipping and balancing.

well after seeing this post

I decided to cancel my order I had no idea the 18 x 9 REVO had such a small lip
and the center of the wheel pokes out too much.
think Im going go with the TSW Snettering but now I have to wait since it will have to be ordered.

Yep, as has already been mentioned, they dont make the EVOs or lightnings anymore from HP. I tried over a year ago to get some and they were sold out then everywhere. I ended up getting the MRR GT1's.
