Leave it to Rick to save the day with attachments...I think they look fine. I've seen enought Neo's on VW's and the sort though, so I'd have a tough time. Though $1800 isn't too bad for 19"s w/ tires! I still like the rims, though right now I've been wondering about the Axis Sevens...any opinions?

i might go with 18's (or even 17" Volk GT-N Metallic Grey). it may look too tall with the 19's. anyway, tnx for all the replies.
rick, tnx for posting the pic from CL-Z.

it did fit. got the 19" Axis NE-O (Gunmetal) for a decent price.
so far, no rubbing for the first 40 miles (even with my 4 stock tires & rims in the back).

I wanted the gunmetal set too, but I wanted the entire spoke to be painted, not just the sides. I am sending mine wheels to a shop to be painted.
Did you get them from Wheelmax.com?

i don't know if the 19's made the car noticeably slower or was it my driving. i have 235/35-19 Falken ZE-502 (the cheapest tire - $150 ea) with apexi coilovers.

i paid $400 ea (250 for the wheel & 150 for the tire). $1800 out the door (with tax, mounting, balancing, nuts & locks). a friend owns a wheel shop & Axis paid him cash & some wheels for a machine he sold them. so he's just trying to get his money for the machine. so he's selling them cheap (he's got about 2 sets left).
