16/17" No bigger with maybe an 8/9 width as light as possible. Buddy Clubs came out the lightest in 17x9 when I looked into it at 6.5kgs each.
That's a starting point for you :thumb:

I may well be selling my Advan TC's off my Evo4.
17" with whats left of some Advan rubber - 215/40/17 A048's I think (pretty much worn out to be honest!!)
They are pearl white with an anodised blue bead, have the centre hub covers & big nut (with spanner now too !!) some custom made bolts (they take a very slim one but you can have these too) and are pretty light. They are exactly the right offset so you can also upgrade to Evo6 brakes at a later date without clearance issues and look the daddies !!
I will try to get a picture up soon, I havent been on the ball lately and the Evo is just sitting there gathering dust at the moment - its meant to be going up for sale too, but I havent got round to it.
I will have a think about price - or pm me what you think is a reasonable offer.
Cheers,
j.

I prefer gunmetal or black alloys. What colour is your evo?.
If it's white I'd go for dark wheels. If it's silver, maybe gunmetal with a nice chrome polished rim.
