Go with the Evo's. Both rims look good. and while i'll agree that the CCW's are pimp, you could spend the extra $2k on performance mods. Nobody's gonna care what rims are on your car if they smoke you, lol.

I already have all of my performance mods done, the wheels are the last thing to finish...the 19's are gonna be just for cruising and show, won't get any traction with the 19" wheels...but i agree, i like the Evo's too...would get them widened to 11" for the rear though...

Anyone have a good deal on the 19x9.5" version (Hyper light?)

that's my buddies TA with the EVOs, his car looks absolutely sick with them on there! I'd vote those just for the sheer affordability of them. But if you have money burning a hole in your pocket then go CCWs...and give me some hahaha

These are two completely different wheels, pricewise. I wouldnt even consider the EVOs if I had the dough for CCWs. It sounds like price is no issue. People know both of these rims and given that EVOs are somewhat played out, and the fact that CCWs are very nice wheels and respected, the choice is easy IMO

I love the CCW's, the evos just look way to RICE to me. The evos are obviously more affordable but you wouldnt be looking at CCW's if you couldnt afford them right.
