I'm thinking of getting these too :) does you know what sprigot rings you need etc ? What tyres are they supposed to have on them on the evo ?
you don't need spigot rings, a complete waste of time and money. but do make sure you get the evo wheel nuts. i have evo 8 wheels which are same size, with 225/45's on eibach springs with no rubbing

That's quite an aggressive fitment, no rubbing? Arches rolled? Much camber? 225/45 front and back?

Was thinking the same. There is a nice set of 9J wheels for sale at the moment I may be interested in.

I do get rubbing but car is lowered I have rolled rear arches, I think some camber arms at rear and a bit more neg at front and it should be ok, 225/45 all round

I wouldnt want any lower offset than mine. If any thing a +45 rear +40 front would be best

Damn, I'd love to see your arches. How much more pull could they handle before looking gash?

I am talking about unmodified arches by the way. All i have done is roll the rear lip up and cut a section of front arch lining where it rubbing slightly then bent the lining tab up. There is now no tire contact

Most rega's are slightly too low offset for a dc5. If you have comitted to buy without knowing sizes. I hope you get very lucky
