Default Axxis OG-SAN Question.

i ordered DR20's about 2 months ago. and i called the dealer and said that the container hasn't left the country to come to the states.and told me that he does not know how long its gonna take to come here so i said f that!he had promised me that it would come 1st or 2nd week of june.... so i decided i best get some other ones..and i kinda fell into the axxis og's 15x8's +25 and the Konig Remembers 16x7's +20 i believe.but i favor more of the axxis wheels.

since the OG-SANS are 15x8's with a +25 will these rub at all? do these sit pretty flushed?and also what color you think would be best for the TCM rather than GOLD.i am dropped on S-techs and Rolled Fenders.
thanks.

I don't think you'd rub at all. I'd do black or red.

You'll need a 5mm spacer in the front to clear the caliper.

I got my OGs 2 weeks ago. Supposedly if u'r '06 model it might rub, if u'r 04-05 u should b fine. I have 06 and I had to install 5mm spacer in front cuz there was literally no space between the caliper and the wheel. U could't fit a knife between . So when I would put new brake pads on it would defeniatelly rub. I sold wheels right off the bat and got bigger wheels.

The Og's are sick... Red would look awesome on your box, but more then likely black wouldn't be so "Look at Me!"
you would need the 5mm spacer but other then that you would be good.
post up pics once you get em!

i understand spacers is a must for clearance issues thanx for the input. but the OG-Sans do come in 15x8 now must be a recent release i believe that it's on there website.they only have gold and a gunmetal color just for anyone who wants to know.

does anyone else have pics of the OG SANS on?!?

Well they look good. Only negative is that they're gonna be a PITA to clean.

thanks for the INPUT fella's...
so i got these rims on...wow! nice. it has new tires and balanced mounted and i've only driven it on the street so far.and i went to work this morning on the freeway and i noticed the my steering wheel is some-what wiggling after i pass up 65mph-70 going to 80mph.so iam on 15x8.195/50's.i had the same problem with the 02's but those were used tires.

i called up the tire place that hooked me up.and told me that i need to rebalance and i asked if they can do it for free since i didnt notice this till now it has only been 2 days.they said no.so i said okay then ide call them back.but what i would like to ask is that do i really need to rebalance these or could i just get 2 hubcentric rings to fix the problem which what was told to me buy the rim dealer.just want to know the input on which to do first.

Depends on how much it's wiggling. If they offered to rebalance for free, might as well do it. Hubcentric rings are something you should use anyway (but with the spacer in front, you might not be able to use em, depending on what spacers you have.)

just only wiggles past 65mph working on 70mph vibration of some sort enough to a point where it's somewhat shaking someones hand repititivly really,really fast doesnt bother me just makes my hand feel wierd after driving on the freeway ive experianced this before but didnt care that much on that ride that i used to have just on the BOX i do.(actually i didnt have to use any spacers on this one when i first mounted them. there was enough clearance from the caliper to the rim.)
i'll order a pair for the front today and let you guys know what happens after.
thanks.

You'll probably need the spacers when you have new brake pads.
