New Axis Se7en rims...opinions?

What do you guys think of the 3-piece look in a one piece rim? They'll be available in our lug-pattern, but 18x8 is the smallest size. Hopefully with some 225/40/18s they won't rub, but I have a feeling they might. Opinions on the wheels? I think they look sweet, gotta luv a polished lip!

Pete, those look exactly like the ones that I have. They look dope, no doubt. To see how they will look, just look at my car (except mine are 17s) and imagine 18s. Rims with a nice lip look so much better in my opinion. The depth makes the rim look bigger than it is.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing...they do look alot like yours...but I saw them online on a Protege5 and they look a little different from far away. I'm just wondering how easily 18x8s will fit with 40 series tires...i think 215/35/18 would fit, but i'd rather put on 225/40s...oh well. I'm a year or so away from rims, but as long as people don't play out the rim, i'll probably end up with those. Too bad I wouldn't shell out the money for actual 3 piece rims
