Anyone have pics of an xB with 18" Axid Mods with the Maxxis lip in the rear? I found one but it did not have the Maxxis lip on the rear.

Also, if I run the Maxxis lip in the rear, will the wheel be flush with the body? I'm not sure of the offset on the Mods, so if anyone with knowledge of these wheels wouldn't mind chiming in I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

No, It will not be flush since with maxxis lip option you are not getting any wider rim or lower offset, I think its still 18x7.5 +40 or +42, Sean

I beg to differ...

Nilo (Xbboy) is, in my book, king of Axis Wheels. I think I've seen...mmm...maybe 5 different styles on his white xB.

I'm not sure how old this photo is, but I happen to graze a frequent website of all of the import shows around the west coast, and came across a pic of his ride. In this pic, hes shown running a set of Axis Mods w/ the Maxis lip.

So it is possible. You might wanna holla at him, tell BigKid sent ya! :P
Very nice set-up I might add, I'm running the same wheels, but in a silver finish. He actually help me get the wheels too.

Yup Get the Hook ups from Nilo.. Mines is on its way to Hawaii.. Also I just got teh TRF kit the same one thats on his car.. He got the only set of TRF kit so far besides NIlos one and I have the second kit made.. But if you want Axis wheels make sure to hit him up Nilo of Scion Sport Tunning.. I believe that the 18s dont come in the maxius lip.. Only 19s.

18's can come in maxis lip.. =) ask brent aka axis king! lol

haha i dont know about king, but having worked there io know alot about the wheel, maxxis will fit in the rear no problem, but will not clear the front brakes, questions or whatever can be pmed to me....cuz i know ALL! hehe

brent

Im running the same wheel as my brotha Nilo but in silver 19's baby and the all mighty maxis lip is super sweet !

thanks for all of the input, guys!

i think i am definitely going with the mods, but not sure if i'm going to go 18's or 19's.

would 19's be bad on a daily driver? they look great, but i'm worried about the ride.

also, is the lip size larger on the 19's?

Yup the lips is larger on the 19s becuase of the maxius lip

bBism,

what size tires are you running on those 19's and what drop are you running?

thanks for the info.

bBism,

thanks for the info.

Im running the new dunlop FM901 tire 215/35/19 and my car is drove every day

as for drop goldlines 2" drop.

^^^ dude... ur xb looks awesome.. i like the tachometer (name?) and ur grill.. i want the axis mods' in black. 18's with tanabe springs.

I got the very first set of 19' Axis 7Mods that were supposed to go to one of the owners of Axis Wheels. Since he went withthe big brake conversion he could not use them so I was lucky enough to get them 3 months prior to them selling the wheels.
I have used them for dailys for awhile and they ride good.
I used a 3mm space in the rear and that was pretty much it.
On 19's I would not recommend running the Maxxis lip though.

Beskone and a few SE members are also rolling on 18's and 19's 7Mods with Maxxis lip (on the rear)

PM me or xbboy if you are interested in a set. We also have some Pirelli tires to go with the wheels. Right now we have 19' for sale but we can get 18' as well.

whats the scoop on the maxxis lip ? :?

what da hell you talking about Adrian??..sheesh I'll give you a call. :shock: :roll: :)
Maybe he meant 19 maxis lip on the front wheels... :wink:

Nilo, you know Adrian has got to be talkin' about not using the maxis lip up front.

uummmm we could only hope so :lol: :roll: :D

yeah yeah, no maxxis in front, only in rear, that is with the mods. with the axis crux wheel you can run maxxis on all 4, or you can run maxxis all the way around iin the mod on a civic, itll clear the brakes

brent

No Maxis lip in the front. Just run them in the rear.
Fronts will rub.
Sorry for the confusion.

brent

hey..with 19's what the lowest springs i can use? can i use the tanabes df20's?

OK guys! well Se7en Mods from SST "Nilo" fit great!! but what wheel lugs do yu use in the back?? the Caps cant fit because the lugs hit the caps.. the fronts fit great..

marshall.....i gave nilo some low profile "maxis" lug nuts for you.....he didnt send those...if you cant get a hold of you pm me your address and ill send you some...i got access to lots of those

brent

^^^ imma order them also.. tinybigrig---i guess ill need them also..but what is 808custums talking about? im confuzzled..

Man, if you aren't getting them, I WILL!

the maxis nut? yeah i just have to go by axis....i think im gonna be by there in the next week or two, im not sure with the holidays and all, but if someone needs them let me know and we can work something out

brent

brent, I think i havesome in the storage.I'll have tocheck later. Thanks tho bro.

NO one has the nuts here in HAwaii dudes!! Hope like what nilo said the stock nuts will work

NO one has the nuts here in HAwaii dudes!! Hope like what nilo said the stock nuts will work

Unfortunately, they didn't when I went to 'fit' them. Luckily Nilo, threw some in the box...

I don't know if its any different for the xB, but the 'boar' for the lug nut isn't very wide at all, in the rear. Question is, does anyone know why though?

ooh ooh i know the answer to that! the wheels came as blanks for the maxxis in the rear, meaning the had no hole for long nuts from the factory, bc they didnt know how many would sell of each size.....so they get sent out to drill to have the holes drilled....the hole size is slightly smaller than normal, and trying to run a 19mil luignut is tight, you need a very shallor walled socket, this could be avoided if you ran 17mil nuts, but they dont make 17mil in a low enough profile for the maxis lip :D

hope this helps

brent

Brent....

YOU ARE KING! ***lowers head...starts to kneel***

Definitely can see why the company went down that road. Smarts!

But now the customer has to figure out to how to tighten these lugz w/ out bust'in a knuckle. :lol:

I had to 'impact' them on...so I guess no ones going anywhere with my wheels. But its gonna be a _____ when I have to change a flat *knocks on wood*.

its not bad, get a 19mil socket from snap on but make sure its a 3/8th in drive, itll fit righ in, thats how i cange mine on the f24s

brent

Well Nilo told me to use the FActory Lugs!! He ned to send me the correct ones.. HAwaii Sucks cant even find the right Lugs for these rims here..

808..you get nice weather and alot of tourists and chix.. so just cuz your loosing two nuts doesnt mean much..just means you dont have 2 nuts.

its not bad, get a 19mil socket from snap on but make sure its a 3/8th in drive, itll fit righ in, thats how i cange mine on the f24s

brentThanks brent for the info...you are the master of wheels... :lol:

Hey I;ll give ya call later regading the wheels for the Supra..thanks

Dang, Brent has Snap-on tools!?! I'm not worthy!

Marshall, you know Nilo will take care of you. If Hawaii is so bad, can I switch places w/ you until after I have my surgery?

brent

Umm..yeaaah...Brent...just realized that 19mm, won't work for me. The 'nutz' that Nilo sent with the wheels were 12mm on 1.5. I'll have to wait unit Friday, til the Snap-on guy comes by and empties everyones pocket book for his tools. :lol:

Btw: one other related question about these wheels. I noticed while threading the screw on the lug cap on, that both front wheels have a potential problem holding the cap in place. On the left side if your try an tighten down the screw, it will start to spin.

I took it off and just tried threading it with just the screw, this time, if you applied just alittle bit of force, you could literally push in the screw without threading it on?!?

..now this is beginning to happen with the right side now too. :(

I'm kinda scared to roll down the hwy...and see my center cap assembly rolling pass me on the frwy.

Anything to prevent this from happening?

That would be fine with me at least I can fix up my car with out the shipping problem! SO when are we trading?

Kosal, give me a call and tell me in detail what's up with the caps...thanks bro.

i had to redrill and tap my f24 caps holes as well, just take a marker put it through the hole on the other side of the wheel, so that you spin the cap to the other sode, mark hole, redrill and tap, you dont even need to take the wheel off, should take ou about 5 min per wheel

brent

12x1.5 is the corrrect size the outer diam of the nut is 19 mill vs 17mil.....i know lots of bs....and squirrel i dont have the snap on tools, but teddy, the mecanic at jaz does, so i use his tools and the lift once we install it......i cant wait, means i dont have to crawl around on the ground when my swaybars, coilovers and underbracing comes in next mont :D

i want to get a set of 19" se7en mod wheels with maxis lip... anybody have any acess to great deals.... i know that you have to grind the caliper to get the fronts to fit, but they will lookkkk siccckkkk... let me know guys...

I can get ya the mods, don't know who told ya about grinding hte calipers ?. but i ran the wheels for months and never had that broblem. Let me know.

Here's an old skool pic of the ride with themon.
http://img122.exs.cx/img122/5870/cl586fo.jpg

guys im looking to get the 19x8 mods non maxis. what offset do you recomend? and any rubbing with an eibach sportline 2 inch drop? what about the spacer shims? are those really a must to have the wheels? please please please some one help me out

No rubbin w/ a 2" trop. No need for OTS spacers, all you need is 5mm spacer for the rear. get the 35mm offset, but i would recommed the maxis lip for the rears, you'll like the set up much better. best of luck.

any suggestion on a tire?

215/35/19...depends on how much your budget is...I like Yoks, but Nitto gens are nice inexpensive tires...jmo

neogens are nice, i have them on my box, i would not run them again, they stick great once they heat up, and they heat up fast 3 minutes on the highway doing 95 will do the trick, lol....

35mil offset in only avaible in the 5 lug, so no 35 for xb unless they changed something....

brent

45 is the only offset for 4x100 in the non maxis

brent

i have been told that the axis mod 7 does not come in black for 19" for the spacing on the xb, yet i see alot of people w/ them......is this true or are people just paint the silver 19" rims?

Yup it's true, the black centers you see on xB art cutom painted. Axis does not make the maxis lip in black.

what about the one w/out the maxxis lip? i would take that one....

I believe that the 18s dont come in the maxius lip.. Only 19s.

Maxxis lip here sittin on 215/35/18

arent these ^^^^ decades and not mods?

BINGO !!!

Lip sizes depend on the Axis wheel style not size rims size only.

Yep, you are absoluetly right......my bad :doh:

You didnt have to get all loud with that "bingo" sh!t though

Anyone have a picture of an xB with 19 inch crux's?

Will i need different lug nuts to bolt up my Crux's?

yes you should use new lug nuts, the shoulder is different on lugs for stamped steel vs cast alum wheels
