Default Evo 8 Wheels on 03 Z

So, I have a set of spare wheels and tires for my evo designated for track use. Instead of buying a whole new set for the Z, I thought to myself "perhaps the evo wheels will fit?" Well, they fit, but they sure look funny being the wrong offset and size 17 vs 18s. Perhaps a small 15mm spacer will make them look less awkward?

I had a set of spare wheels sitting around that were from an EVO and they were something like 9.5 +38. They fit, but not well. 20mm spacers worked for the brief time I had 'em on.

But always check your specific wheels before rushing out and buying spacers.

Just for the sake of evo wheel loving. Evo X wheels! They're 18x8.5.

This with 20 mil spacers

It seems like the two vehicles draw similar wheel styles ... I bought my RPF1s from an evoVIII owner, alot of the volks (TE37, CE28), Advan(RSD, GT, RZ), etc look good on both cars...

Flash - any idea what those wheels/tires weigh?
