im not kidding at all. ive had 3 sets of axis wheels, TC EVO's, 7Mods, and the Krux, all 19", two of them with the Maxis Lip. Im pretty sure these wheels use the same barrel, so there gonna be heavy.

big difference you drive a box....i think your car is a little slower then the tc anyways
I doubt there will be any difference that i can feel with the acceleration and gas mileage thanks anyways though

i feel WDS coming along and locking this thread... those are nice wheels... are they new since i have never seen them. i might look into those. i really dont care about weights because i am not a racer so it doesnt matter. but two inches, thats not a lip j/k i want to go with 19x10 or 18x10 on mine simply so i can get that big lip in the rear. people will diss on it because it is FWD and will have massive oversteer, but itll look good right?

I feel yah im not racing my car around the town...
I was 18 before and now im 26 you kinda grow out of that crap....
it just has to look good now.

and you are talking about staggered rims...
I think it is stupid to have them on front wheel drive cars simply
because there is no point, and it costs an arm and a leg to rotate...

alot of race cars that spoon builds have offsets that cause the front to be wider then the rear to prevent under stear but if all you want is looks then i guess make the rear wider its just not my style

Offset shmoffset, Im getting tired of you guys all talking about offsets....
IF the company makes a wheels to fit your car it fits...
no need to look into offsets... unless the rims isnt made for your car
if you go to axis they specifically make this rim for the nissan 350 the g35 and scion tc... I also found out that the lip is actually 2 1/3rd inches...

I've never heard of someone ordering wheels with "the wrong offset"
when you order a wheel they wouln't send you something that doesnt fit your car

THANK YOU!.............
man you said it, when i ordered my axis 7's i just told the guy what kind of car i had, and BAM they fit. as for being heavy, i did not notice an difference in my acceleration. and its not like they wieght 20 pounds more then stock.
I have always been a fan of axis, ive had probably 4 sets in the last two years, and ive always been happy. I could have gotten something more exotic, like volks or something but where i live nobody cares, and it still looks good.
good luck and get those pics posted those are a really nice wheel.
