$1200 w/ tires, and paid $100 to get insurance for 3 years that covers 3 wheels of scrapes/dents etc...and get replaced w/ new ones from wheelsnext.com i got a deal cause rims i wanted were not available, normally its like $1400 w/ tires. the tires are some no name tho, but same ratings as kumho...i think well worth the price, since local they'd prob ask $2000+ easily...and that price i got em is shipped too.

Let me get this straight, if you are retarded and bomb one of your rims off a curb, for whatever reason, these guys will send replacements for free, no questions asked?

BTW, nice choice. I saw your photochop and it looks SWEET! 8)

Sweet rims! I didn't know they were available in black, but I've been out of the rim market for a while since I got my shoes bolted on. Hope you can endure the wait!!!!!!

The guy i dealt with was awesome...I felt safe w/ them because I went to axiswheels.com and it says the black are exclusive to wheelsnext.com :) so hopefully make em a little rare too. Even tho i have never seen them at all anyways on any cars here in any color...

about the $100 warranty, he said say you go to a car wash and it scrapes the rim, u call use for a brand new replacement...was def worth $100 to me know how my rims look on my other car after normal driving :)

ya i can't wait either! I always wanted a deep dish rim! and my other car i love the rims, but these are gonna look sweet! anybody know how much these weigh in 18's? or have that link to wheel weights?

My mom said they looked bad, like the studs are a dog collar haha. I think they look very classy, and should make the car look amazing! To bad i'll have the rims b4 the car probably haha :)

Hey Piercedlip

What offset you running on those wheels.

Just curious? I went to their website, but they don't have the tC in their application guide. (I might have to phone them for the details) I was thinking about running the AXIS HIRO in either the gunmetal or the bronze? Thinking big here so I'd like go with a 19" if its do-able. Haven't gotten a chance to really get measurements.

what do you think?

I was planning on purchasing the wheels b4 I got the car as well. I thought I might as well get ready...cause its nothing but skies the limit after I hope into the driver seat! Plus their package prices are awesome!

Btw: the color of my tCs' going to be Flint Mica w. a 5spd! heheh 8)

Hey, I forget what offset. I know stock its

205 45 17 and these are 225 40 18's, w/ 5x100 bolt pattern. about all I know ;) but if they dont look good enough, I remember reading about spacers...a friend of mine has those on his VW, and it makes the back look awesome! haha when I get the rims I am going to snap some pics and post em up to hold me over and show u guys how they look, to bad they dont fit on my other car, its a honda, so no luck there w/ 4 lugs.

you can run the hiros on a tc, 19x8.5 up front 19x9.5 in the rear, looks awsome....im not sure if we have the correct offsets in right now....but i can check tomm. and to answer another question i believe the 18 is 22lbs and the 19 24lbs

update: car is to be here anytime now to Sept 7th, and wheelsnext said the rims are due TODAY...tuesday. I dunno they are kinda a odd company, kinda threw me in a loop for awhile just to get it tracked, and wouldnt even gimme the tracking #, said to many people try to reroute things. I only went w/ them cause they are listed on the axis site as only place to get these wheels officially....i'll post up pics if they DO come today...i just always think things dont happen like I hope hehe. UPS always come to my house at like 10 minutes before they quit delivery lol

Hopefully your wheels come in when they are supposed to because I ordered from wheelsnext and the experience sucked. They wouldn't give me a tracking number either. Peace
