Default hp evo wheels what color wheels should i get?

im looking to get hp evo wheels, but i am undecided on what color to get. The rims will be going on a red sc300.
hyperblack

hyper silver

black


also looking around the web i can only find these sizes-18x8,18x9 in 38 offsets, I would like to get +38 for the front, and +35 for the rear, but i cannot seem to find +35. Can someone clarify.

seen these exact wheels on a red SC400 and they were hyper black, lookes AWESOME! black wheels are gettign a little over-done(sorry to you all who have them), can't go wrong with just normal old silver but I think the hyper black is a good compromise

I like #1 and #2.

I have the RPM 505, which looks just like #2, 19" on a GS430 so I am biased, but almost ended up with the hyperblack myself.


When I spoke with Wheelsnext and Wheelstudio, they said it only comes in the 38 offset, that was for the 19" though. If you want to get the back out a bit more, have you considered a spacer? You'd have to extend your lug studs but if it's the look your going for it'll be worth it.

I thought about running a spacer, but i would rather get a wheel that has the right offset.

You are very very right about that... spacers suck, and anything more than 5 mm would require different studs and such for safety...

now, I don't know which red you have, but here's mine with gunmetal TSW's for reference...

One other thing... I run 19x9.5 on the rear with a 35mm offset, and with 275/30-19 tires, the fenders had to be rolled... It looks great, and there is no more than 2-3mm clearance tire/fender, but just a forewarning... there is actually more room between the shock and the wheel for clearance, so, a higher offset will work as well...

HP only makes them in a +38 offset. Nothing else...
