    Thats the thing, i dont think anyone knows lol! Everyones asking what parts are compatible from the Evo X to the Lancer. But i would think to check the basic specifications fro the Evo X and the 08 lancer.

    well, then lets look it up =)

    WheelBase
    Lancer: 103.7
    Evo X: 104.3

    Length
    Lancer: 180.0
    Evo X: 177.0

    Width
    Lancer 69.4
    Evo X: 71.3

    Height
    Lancer: 58.7
    Evo X: 58.3

    Track, Front (no idea what that is)
    Lancer: 60.2
    Evo X: 60.8

    Track, Rear
    Lancer: 60.2
    Evo X: 60.8

    Min. Ground Clearance
    Lancer: 5.8
    Evo X: 5.3

    thats all in inches... so in the end... i guess it probably won't fit... since it's like a 2-3 inch difference... might be wrong though

    yea, thats what i think, that it prob wont work, but it might be possible with alot of bodywork. But youll never know until you try.

    well dont forget. THe reason why evox might be wider is because of the wide fenders? I am not so sure 100% about this next statement but from what I think and what the dealers told me here is that they start off the same but then the fenders ont he evox go into the wide body style when the lancers stay normal. But thats just their thoughts, no1 can give me a 100% answer about if it will fit or not.
