Can anyone help me with this? I am looking at a set of Evo 7/8 rims and was wondering about a couple of things. I know the PCD on the Evo is the same as the TL but is the offset and hub size comparable? Cheers!

They run a fairly high offset from memory to clear the brembos. Also keep in mind that the
TL is much heavier than an evo, so make sure the evo wheels have adequate load rating.

Dimi108 had the EVO enkeis n his sigma. Yes they're exactly like the ralliart enkeis, except the ralliart ones (magna) have "ralliart" and "enkei" printed on them...

I Know the Evo 7, 8 & 9's run a 17*8 +38 from factory.
The Evo 7 GT-A basically runs the same rim as the rallliart magna. Although, Im a little unsure of its offset.

Yes, I wasnt sure of the number. Dimi108 had evo 7 rims on his sigma. Almost 100% sure that it fit the same.
Type40, what size rims do you have on there right now (i'm assuming you're going to changeover if fitment is correct) If 17's, send me a PM and i might consider buying yours off you :D

Thanks everyone for your help with this. Very much appreciated.

but didn't he modify his brake calipers to the twin pot from a gto? from memory they are significantly larger than the standard 2nd gen brakes- kinda like the 3rd gen std brakes and the sports/vr-x/awd brakes, u can't fit 15" wheels over those brakes

But the wheels sat inside the guard, much like those of GoTrice. Dont think brakes would have much influence on offset...

Twin pots off a GTO :s Maybe he just used verada calipers which fit behind 15"s fine

Wrong, and wrong
Evos are not very light cars, and the stock offset is 38.
Evo rims wheel fit a Magna no problems at all.
