both look the same, but I bet you the g-games cost more, so go with the Axis to save money.

Well, on wheelmax.com they said that that application does fit our cars.

You can't go by wheelmax..You have to call Axis directly to get the offset, but if I'm not mistaken it will most likely be a 45 offset of that 18x8 normal lip and if you go with the maxis lip it will be a 18x8 with a 40 offset. That is what they told me when I called about the Axis Mods and their offsets but that was in 19's.

Yeah but may rub a little if you are dropped. Get 225/40/18 and it won't be that bad at all, I have a 44 offset on mine and rubbed a little when I first put them on.

yeah you cant go by what the wheel sites say will fit your car, almost always that search is just based up on the wheels bolt pattern and size, not width or offset, which are critical for our cars

If you can afford g-games, then buy g-games. It much lighter and probably has a higher off set for our cars.
