What should i do with my new EVO

I was wondering what the biggest size rims i could put on the evoVII?and what size subs are best for the trunk space of the new lancer evoVII:bandit:

THANKS

Did you import that EvoVII?

please don't put huge rims on an evo...please?! Huge rims are heavy, and the evo is a performance car. Not something you should turn into a low rider... and where in texas are you? if you're in houston, I have GOT to see your car.

We are advised against putting up 18" rims. On heavy driving they do interfere with the wheelarches. When changing to more pro suspension setup (using either Reiger or Proflex shocks) 18" is a definite no - no.

So I stick with my 17" comopotive white rally wheels.

BLACKevoLANCER is my new name, my old name was EVILevoVII, something went wrong with my password and i cant logg back in with EVILevoVII.
NO i do not have a EVOVII yet, but when it comes out ill be in a black one.(SORRY if i caused confusions)

I was still wondering what size subs would be good in a evolancerVII
2-12's or 2-10's

I guess its like any other small 4 door...its all about personal preference.
I always prefer 10's they are more precise.

k, thats cool. WEll, my own personal preference is 10 inch alpine type s subs. I love the way those sound. If money is no object, I would HIGHLY suggest one of the new jl W7s. Those subs ROCK!!!! 17 inch rims is probably the max size you should go. It would be POSSIBLE to put like, 22 inch blades on it, but if you do that I'm going to pull you out of your car and run you over multiple times...jk. I'll only be going 16 when I get my evo, and I'll be going with a mild system. Just 1 10 inch. I dont need any more extra wieght than that, and the sound should be pretty good.

BlackevoLancer,
You are only 15? Keep dreaming and go buy a civic to make your first "riced" out car! How do you plan on buying a $30,000 car? Remember your insurance would also be a good $300 a month.
:rolleyes:

maybe violinandy means 'he's only going 16', as in..16 inch rims..?

First off, who would put subs in a Evo? It is a relativly lightweight performance car, not a rice rocket (although it could qualify as that). If you want to put subs in the back of your compact, buy a IS300 or something else, but not an Evo. Hopefully while driving such a fast car you would be more worried with the road and not the bass. Second, violinandy, if you are turning 16 and you expect your first car to be an Evo, I hope someone or something will change your mind before I meet you on the road. Do you really think with no driving experience that you can enjoy/handle this car?

Just because Blackevolancer is only 15 doesnt mean that he cant have a 30k car. Its all a out if the family is willing to buy it for them. I live in Los Angeles and I know alot of my friends has cars that range from 10k to 60k. When my brother was 17 my pops bought him a 1998 BMW 540I which cost him 59k. So dont think cause they young they cant get one, its how much the parents have and how much the kids kiss ass to them :D But anyways my EVO VII should be in my garage by next week:D

derek,

Is your car gonna be in Malaysia or US? How much did you pay for it?

I am getting my car in KL, its a black GSR. I paid RM 220K. The EVO VII doesnt come with speakers but does it comes with any speaker wires? Where did you get you stereo intsalled at? Amoil?

Nope, speakers and cables all came from my previous car and installed by my brother who also happened to be the dealer who sold it to me.

Sound system to me doesn't rank as a very high priority.

Tell me when you get the car so we can meet up.

Ill let you know when I get my car. Which dealer does your brother work for? What color is your car?

Dealer is Falcon speed
Car is Silver

you have any idea whats the dealers cost of the car? just to get and idea

Bear in mind that the cost of the car to each dealer varies depending on acquisition cost, AP cost, delivery cost, financing cost, insurance cost etc..

For my specific car, I know what the cost is but I can't tell you as it would be unfair to the dealer.

However, I believe you have got a good price.
