I got the Enkei RPM2s on my car...gunmetal in color. I love the split rim look on any car. Only wish I had i had a lip on em though. Lightspeed has seen my wheels. Racing Hart makes a few differnt kinds that arent that expensice too. I say go for it.

groundzero. I actually purchased the HP Evo's. The offset was fine, the problem as CC states is with the design of the wheel. They fit fine in back but up front, they will not clear the calipers. Not even close enough to consider a spacer (not that you should).
I sold them and went with the AZA Z2. Very similar in style but with a bit curve in the spokes. These clear no problem and would easily clear a big brake kit as well.
Here is the link to the thread showing them on my Z.

Is this also in staggered fitment? How deep is the lip front and rear? By the way those look identical to the hp evo's...Thanks for the info man, but I hope they are not expensive. Peace.

I called wheelmax to ask about the AZA Z2 wheels and I told him about my car 1992 2+2 n/a. He told me they fit and that I can fit 18/40/245 in the front, and 18/40/275 in the rear. Is this guy just bullshitting me or what? seems like thats way too big for my ride. What do you guys think? Thanks

He is telling the truth. I did not go with the staggered set up (so I could rotate all 4 wheels if I wanted to). I have 18/40/245's all the way around...no problem with fit and can still lower the car if I wanted to. Don't know about the 18/40/275's in back but it sounds fine. You could go with 18/35/275 to be safe.
The link I provided had some pics of my car with the AZAs. The lip is 2inches and looks nice.
They are not identical to the HP Evo's, close but not identical. The AZAs have 10 spokes and are a bit thinner than the HPs, which if I recall had 7 or 8 spokes.
The big difference between the two is the shape of the spokes. The AZAs have a bit more curve to them making sure they easily clear your calipers.
