What is everyones opinion... and what size tire would you reocmmend for them.
Pitch_Black_tC 08-21-2004, 11:04 PM Those are some of my favorite rims and I think they would look really good on the tC. For tires I would probably get 225/40/18.
piercedlip81 08-21-2004, 11:54 PM Those look nice, I'm thinking about gettin a pair of axis wheels too...I get my black tc in 5-14 days, it was released to the dealer...and I think these would look badass!

but im like you, curious of the tire size. I got 17's on my other car with 40 series, but these would be 18's with 40 series...so I dunno...I wanted the rims in 17 maybe, but they dont make em. :-/ lemme know if u get em! post up some pics!
JDMxB 08-22-2004, 12:28 AM Everyone on Scionlife loves Axis wheels--so I think you should get them, alot of people are close to the company as well--so customer support *shouldn't* be a problem.
Smoke20Scion 08-22-2004, 03:44 AM Axis wheels are killer, I love how they have a great lip! I also love those new gloss black wheels, by Axis and Racing Hart.

i like that a lot. but i cant tell if its a glossy surface on the spokes or not. im not big on shiny rims. i like a more matte finish

it looks like the spokes are flat silver and the dish/lip is polished/shiny... hope that isnt too much silver on a silver car :?
SdClassicBlack 08-22-2004, 07:36 AM Go w/ the 19" and no coilover drop.
confucious 08-22-2004, 08:09 AM GO WITH THE HIRO'S.

Classic 5 spoke with polished lip? You can't go wrong. Good taste. 8)
Rodax 08-22-2004, 04:16 PM Those are nice. Anything is better than the stock wheels. I think they do absolutely nothing for the appearance of the tC. I went with 19" Konigs for my flint mica.

At least they are better than hubcaps or 16" alloys.
sl0wp0ke 08-22-2004, 04:46 PM LOL I like how now everyone wants hiro's! Thank-god I already ordered mine so I can get them on as soon as I get my car next week.
THen I can say I was first and all you copied me! :lol: :lol:
RacingSolution 08-22-2004, 06:15 PM =) Fair enough... Its damn hard to pick out rims... Always afraid they wont look good on the car.. :)

PolarScionXB 08-24-2004, 03:22 AM I should of waited 1 more week till the release of the Black Axis Se7en mods Before I bought mine in Silver. Anyway I am still Very pleased with them
