I'm biased first off. Evo has no crankwalk issues that I know of. That was 2nd gen DSMs that did. Evo clutch fails because of abuse. The car believe it or not wasn't meant to be launched at 6krpm drag racing over and over again. Neither car is a drag racing car. The tires wear because they are soft compound, the STI tires will wear just as quickly. EVO takes to mods nicely and is a lot cheaper to mod than the STI. I agree with the statement I've heard that the STI is a highly tuned road car and the EVO is a race car. The STI is nicer on the inside and the 2.5L tourque is nice but I ride in my friends STI all the time and I drive my EVO everyday, I would never give up my EVO for a STI. ANd yes I'm on my second clutch, the front rotors are warped, and it makes a ton of funny noises. I still love it. EVO all the way.
