I can`t believe 10.5 +18`s on 275`s are just flush on an EVO X. So much room to for an aggressive set-up on these cars.

Well I'm only riding on 245/40/18 tires (stock). It'll definitely be more flush if I go 265 or 275/35/18 + a fender roll.

Top Gear Top Tip: Take that SFU parking pass off before you do those photoshoots.

i think the spoiler looks nice

maybe a few inches lower. but its how he wants it

although i'm not a HUGE fan, i think a TA stripe would look nice. just to offset the black on black.

and are the front and rear bumpers stock? either way they compliment the car very well.

Yeah we got kicked out too :P, i guess you need to go there when there are less people/late at night.

Also, the wing is awesome but i mirror the response here that it is too high, at least visually.

9.5 wide +20s on the fronts are pretty impressive.

Thanks again for the comments guys!

I'm already scraping here and there, so I don't really want to lower it anymore since I DD my car. I'm planning on getting a front lip, but since winter is coming, I'll wait it out unless I find a good deal on one.

I don't know if I'm the 1st 11R owner locally, but I haven't seen these locally so far.
I realized that this isn't exactly the best "photoshoot", but my friend and I just wanted to take some quick shots on the day I got my wheels mounted to show some of our friends.

but then that wing doesn't work visually if it's any lower.

Any lower it'll look like an APC wing. Although like someone posted the factory wing is all fine and dandy as it is but if you are going to go for a ballin' wing you might as well hang it high.

Well I wouldn't have changed my wing if I could get my hands on an MR wing... the GSR wing doesn't really work for me lol... it was either wingless or MR wing. But I figured if I wanted to go with a wing, mind as well go BIG. But then again... a lot of people don't like GT wings on street cars (hell you even put a pic of my car in the hall of shame XD), so maybe I should have just went with the MR wing... it could've saved me a few bucks as well ><.
