Whats new with my evo
My evo has been sitting in my garage for the past 2 months and I havent done anything untill today. I lowered the car with some tein s tech springs and I got a set of 17x8.5 rota slipstreams, I only paid $75 for the set of wheels. And yes they are real Rota's, one of the wheels was bent. I have a few more things that I want to do to my car over the winter but it will depend on the bank account.
Here is a couple shitty cell phone pics

Ya its pretty bad, I have been talking with Rota trying to get a new wheel and they dont make the wheel in that color anymore, so I need to buy the gunmetal wheel with polished lip and then get it powder coated. |

You mean you can get a knock-off of a knock-off? LOL Great price on the wheels though. How much will a replacement cost you? No way to get it repaired?

I have called rota a few times now, and I can get a replacement wheel for 200 shipped. I would just have to get it powder coated to match the color |

Why would you do that, that's alotta money....  ... and if you're afraid, EvoDave can do them pretty identical to the JDM ones but the headlights are real easy to do on Evos. The tails are a bitch.
