Just bought Axis se7en mods!

SO I just bought em... they should be hear within 2 days. I paid 2200 for them with toyo T1s's.The only thing is that the guy said they only come in a 35 offset. he told me that he is going to ask them if they can make them a 40 at least so they dont rub... if not then I am just going to roll the fenders..... Im sure that will work.
I am also getting comptech springs. They should be here within a few days to.. I hope everything works out....

With +35 you'll be rubbing. Stick with +45 as it already tried and proven.

because you need to run 19s with that profile to keep the speedo accurate so you have to go with 35series which is not pothole frendly

Oh ok... well there is not to many around hear so I should be good. Their are a lot of new paved road around where I live.

18's won't be much better. IF a rims gonna bend it's gonna bend. It's one of the chances you take w/ aftermarket rims, even the big dogs (HRE, FIKSE) break/bend

Warning: the 18" Axis Se7en Mod doesn't come in a +45 offset; it comes in a +42 offset. I ordered the 18s a while back and when they were test fitted, the spokes (up front) were banging/rubbing against the brake calipers. Therefore the fronts were not able to spin freely except for the rears. Spacers were out of the question. Had to send them back and order the ones that DO fit... 19x8" with +45 offset.
