Could somebody Re-Chop the pics of the White tC and put a Blue lip on the wheels??? Please

 

wow that chop loooks amazzzzing i'm in love....i just ordered 2 sets of these....can't wait...

 

once again if they only came in black

 

Holy hell.. SCION_X where did you find those they are hott?? I like those alot??

 

I think I've got the offsets available for these wheels figured out. The 18x7.5 comes in +42. The 19x8 comes in either +45 or +35, maybe depending on what bolt pattern you get. For our 5x100 it is +35.

The 18x7.5/+42 will make your wheels stick out 9mm further than stock.
(45-42=3mm, 7.5-7.0=0.5/2=0.25=6mm, 3+6=9mm)
Better but still not flush.

If you go with the 19s you'll get out 22m which will be pretty close to flush.
(45-35=10mm, 8-7=1/2=0.5=12mm, 10+12=22mm)

On the 18s, adding the H&R 15mm spacers will get you out 24mm over stock.

This guy was running 20mm spacers on stock wheels with S.Tech drop, and was rubbing on the fronts some. So 24mm is gonna be risky.

This guy has Axis Decades that are 18x8/+35, with 1/4 spacers and S.Tech drop.

(45-35=10mm, 8-7=1/2=0.5=12mm, 0.25=6mm, 10+12+6=28mm)
So he's out 28mm from stock on S.Techs, but he has 215/35ZR18 tires so that helps. Perhaps there is hope for extending out 24mm on 225/40/18 tires on a milder drop with no rubbing!

Also, I figured out how to edit the URL at wheelstudio.com so you can browse all the different configurations for all the wheels. First navigate to the wheel you want from the brand list (not by choosing your car first). Then when you are on the single wheel's page the URL will end in "?osCsid=" followed by a bunch of gibberish. Delete all that so that the URL ends with "products_id/6895" where those last four digits will be the item number for each individual wheel size/fitment/bolt pattern. Just change that number one up or down to look through all the configurations. When you see a totally different wheel you've gone too far.

Then you can try and figure out Wheelstudio's fitment code that will be on each of those individual pages. For my TC Evo's
http://wheelstudio.com/catalog/produ...oducts_id/6895
it's
[Axis.TC Evo.5x100.18.7.5.42.gphwsr]
which translates to
[Brand.Model.boltpattern.diameter.width.offset.color]

Enjoy.

 

I made one but it looked like crap. From the bad Photochop and the bad color combo. Not even worth posting.

Plus you've already moved on to the Works anyway! LOL

 

Thanks a lot High_Contrast. Big help. Happy modding to ya!
TRD springs will be here today from McGeorge and Im gonna order the rims today as well. Should look hot once everything's in place.

 

hey agmech im really lookin forward to see wut ur ride looks like with the wheels and the TRD drop
i got mine with a pedestal spoiler, s2k antenna, oem floor mats n wheel locks too
i wanna do the trd exhuast and k&n filter, so i would really like to see pictures of ur car all around, after u have these mods

 

hey 2Clean, for some reason I haven't mastered the whole posting pictures on this forum deal, but if you want I can e-mail you pictures of my ride now and after i put the drop springs in and rims on. PM me and let me know. I'm thinking everything won't be on until maybe the 19th of April. I gotta wait until the break to get some good time to work on everything.

 

alright u should have a PM

 

PMed you back

 

The Axis TC Evo wheels came today:


The Avon Techs have been here since Wednesday:


I'll be installing tonight and will post pics when done

 

Hurry up!

 

mine should be shipping today. TC EVO - graphite finish with silver lip/ring and Hankook K106 tires! Should be at my house by the end of the week. SWEET! High_Contrast

 

mine just came in today....what's up with the blue centercap and label?! that was never in the original picture from axis' sitey dealer's site....any way to change it?!

 

im just guessing, but you can't pull that off? i mean, it may just be some plastic to keep it from scratching during the shipping process. ya know, like on the screens of cell phones when you first get them?

 

i kinda pulled a little bit but i was scared that it was permanent and i didn't wanna wreck it if it was since i might end up reselling them if the blue has to stick

 

The blue plastic is definitely just a protective film that's meant to be removed.

On the one wheel that I opened, the rectangular piece on the spoke was obviously going to come off, it was already lifting off the edges a bit. The one on the center cap was not as obvious, but when I run my thumb over the surface I can hear a crinkling sound as it sticks and releases around the edge of the raised "axis" logo. I'm waiting until I get the tires mounted to take the film off.

On that note, some sad news. I wasn't able to get any of my friends with trucks to help me out and take my tires and wheels to the shop to get mounted and balanced tonight. So that's going to be postponed until tomorrow afternoon.

So here's all I can offer for now, pics of a wheel test-fitted on my car:


Here's checking the inside clearance (it's only 3mm less so I didn't expect any problems):


Real pics tomorrow! I mean it!

 

can't wait....i wanna see them....

 

cant wait to see them mounted/balanced and installed.
