Default 19 inch wheels

I bought some 19nts for the wife's XB but she is hesistant on getting them on the car. anyone have pics?

they are the Axis TC EVOS dark graphite with a red rim to be put onto a Dark Grey Box.
+35 and +45 offsets

If she doesn't like them guess I'll have to sell.

I think she is more hesitant because she thinks I will be ____ed if she scrapes them.

I have 19 on my G35 sedan, lowered about 1.5 inches and actually rides pretty good.

Tires can be had for about 800 for the set.

I told her that I may just sell both hers and mine so I can save up for some 20 for MY car.

What size tires would go good with these, would a 215 be too thin?

i have 19x8 axis ne-o wheels with 215/35r19 w/tanabe df210s doesnt ride too bad but i like a stiffer ride. my only thing is that a 215/35 is streched to much for the wheels just ordered 2 225/35r19 tires for the back, tires on the back are noisey and one keeps loosing air

Wife won't let me touch the car and since they are just in the way and taking up room..I will just sell them cheap.

We have considered camping as a new hobbie for the boys and will be using the XB for that purpose. I guess any add ons to the car will be with a purpose..like aluggage rack or bike rack for the roof.

Had Axis Crux with same size, offset on 215/35/19... I say do it, just get some nice tires that will ride smooth like some FK452's



Rode very nice, only lowered on TRD's

I have a set of the crux also in 19 but I sold them to my buddy so we can try and make them work on his Datsun 510 coupe or the 510 wagon.

ummm NO. Scion sells TRD 19's as an option. My 19's only rubbed a bit in the back because I spaced them out more and they were wide with a lower offset to begin with.

Am I just asking too much for these? I have offered them at my lowest of 300 for brand new 19 inch wheels and have had people frown on it.

People are just retarded in general. Being on this site has shown me that there are more retards than I wouldve imagined.

$300 is a steal and a good price. Throw them on eBay and people will pay your asking plus shipping.
