Default Axis Mods

Anyone have pics of an xB with 18" Axid Mods with the Maxxis lip in the rear? I found one but it did not have the Maxxis lip on the rear.

Also, if I run the Maxxis lip in the rear, will the wheel be flush with the body? I'm not sure of the offset on the Mods, so if anyone with knowledge of these wheels wouldn't mind chiming in I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

No, It will not be flush since with maxxis lip option you are not getting any wider rim or lower offset, I think its still 18x7.5 +40 or +42, Sean

I beg to differ...

Nilo (Xbboy) is, in my book, king of Axis Wheels. I think I've seen...mmm...maybe 5 different styles on his white xB.

I'm not sure how old this photo is, but I happen to graze a frequent website of all of the import shows around the west coast, and came across a pic of his ride. In this pic, hes shown running a set of Axis Mods w/ the Maxis lip.

So it is possible. You might wanna holla at him, tell BigKid sent ya!
Very nice set-up I might add, I'm running the same wheels, but in a silver finish. He actually help me get the wheels too.

Yup Get the Hook ups from Nilo.. Mines is on its way to Hawaii.. Also I just got teh TRF kit the same one thats on his car.. He got the only set of TRF kit so far besides NIlos one and I have the second kit made.. But if you want Axis wheels make sure to hit him up Nilo of Scion Sport Tunning.. I believe that the 18s dont come in the maxius lip.. Only 19s.

thanks for all of the input, guys!

i think i am definitely going with the mods, but not sure if i'm going to go 18's or 19's.

would 19's be bad on a daily driver? they look great, but i'm worried about the ride.

also, is the lip size larger on the 19's?

I got the very first set of 19' Axis 7Mods that were supposed to go to one of the owners of Axis Wheels. Since he went withthe big brake conversion he could not use them so I was lucky enough to get them 3 months prior to them selling the wheels.
I have used them for dailys for awhile and they ride good.
I used a 3mm space in the rear and that was pretty much it.
On 19's I would not recommend running the Maxxis lip though.

Beskone and a few SE members are also rolling on 18's and 19's 7Mods with Maxxis lip (on the rear)

PM me or xbboy if you are interested in a set. We also have some Pirelli tires to go with the wheels. Right now we have 19' for sale but we can get 18' as well.

yeah yeah, no maxxis in front, only in rear, that is with the mods. with the axis crux wheel you can run maxxis on all 4, or you can run maxxis all the way around iin the mod on a civic, itll clear the brakes
