what? 19x8.5 wouldnt fit?! (guess again)

I just got my wheels installed earlier today. I am very happy with the way these wheels look and fit the car distinctiv-ly.

brand/model = AXIS HIRO
size/width = 19 x 8.5
offset = 45mm
tire = toyo proxie 4 225/35/19

I only had to roll my rear fenders (not a big deal) and
cut those two tabs (not a big deal)...

I have no rubbing issues at ALL!

we'll now for the pics.. hope you guys like!

i know 19x8.5 will be no problem, my most aggressive fitment is 19x9 et20 with 225/35/19, but you gotta change tires often

REV-01 -- dude, you go VIP toe-in crazy in the back to get a 8.5" rim with +20 offset to work on a 2nd gen TL! Give you props for that but you're gonna get major camber wear (as you well know). Most of us don't want to change tires every tire rotation!

pimpravi -- consider yourself lucky that you got your setup to fit without rubbing (even with rolling fenders + cutting plastic tabs)

this whole buying rims/tire process for me was very unlucky.. i went thru so much shit but it all paid off once the car was done..

but i do plan on lowering the front all the way to the bottom (tein SS)
