    Kyowa Evolve 17" fitment, pics, issues????

    im looking to get a set of these for my car. I currently have the tokico kit on my car which lowered it id say about 2 inches. Can anyone post a pic of these if they have them on there car- or give any input on the quality of these wheels.
    Im also up for suggestions if i should get the black ones with chrome lip (similar to my current wheels) or the all silver ones.
    thanks guys.
    this is a link to the wheels.

    Have you checked spacer prices?

    You will need about 20mm worth of spacer...not cheap!

      im a noob when it comes to wheels so sorry if i sound dumb; but why would i need spacers? wouldnt they cause the wheel to stick out closer to the edge of the fender? I really dont want to deal with rubbing issues or having to have my fenders rolled.
      17x7 is the current size i run now- is this becuase of the offset/hub size of these rims?

        the offset is really high, so your wheels will a. look stupid and b. probably rub at full lock. you probably dont have to worry about them hitting the strut since they are 17's, but a high offset 15 or 16 inch wheel has this problem.

        15mm spacers would help both of these problems (20mm would work too, but if you are really lowered 2 inches you'd probably rub on your fender), but you should factor in the cost of those before deciding to purchase. they will also need to be hubcentric, because the centerbore of the E30 is different than the CB of those wheels.

        i actually like the style of those wheels, it is just too bad they are a high offset. as for their quality, they're probably not very good.

                    If you plan on a decent ride height (meaning pretty damn low) and a decent fitment (near flush) on 17s, you WILL need to roll both front and rear.

                    Knuckle down, matey!

                      Those would be pretty sick of they weren't multi-drills. Totally kills them.
