Ive been looking for those around town, can't belive the price i've been quoted? 2499 a piece Way to much to add to the tl.....Looks good ...yeeah your missing the side A-spec.....really finish off the car.......

would you mind letting me know where you purchased and for how much
??

i've also been looking at panther wheels, one piece going for a set $600.00

can anyone beat that price?

Thumbs up

I like the way it looks without the side skirts also. The front and rear lip are good enough IMO.

I just got those same rims today. 19x8.5 +35 in anthracite for my AM 6spd. The color is very similar to AM, maybe a little bit darker. Unfortunately, I have to wait till Thursday (pay day) so I can get the damn tires. I got these rims for $1099 shipped from ebay...ridiculously cheap

Those axis hiros are a popular choice of wheel. I've seen a set of those on almost every type of japanese import.

I was gonna get these too. Had them on pre-order 2 months ago from Tom's Tire in Long Beach for $1850 w/ tires... Pirelli Zeros to be exact. Canceled and went with the RH pro j5's... still waiting on those.

thats a good price you were quoted. sounds like the price for 18's though. it they were 19's that was a great deal. i wanted and should have got the volks te97???? whatever the name. they looked hot.

Think you meant the TE37's... yeah, they were for 18s. But I can't wait for my RH's, 19's!

Car looks HOT. I have the same color combo and I was going to get those exact wheels. I'm kinda sorry I didnt. I ended up going with the Niche Rhines in 19"

Thanks for posting those pics, If you could post some more, I'd appriciate it b/c I'm looking to replace the rear bumper to the A spec one but not the side skirts or the front lip and I want to make sure it would look good. I pretty much have to change the bumper b/c someone with a trailer hitch backed into the bumper and didnt leave a note, the bodyshop said it would be $1200 to $1500. The A spec would look better since i have to change anyway.
