3G TL on 19" Axis Hiro's?

Guys, I am looking to buy a set of wheels today, and Im SERIOUSLY looking into the Axis Hiro's. I have a DWP 05 TL w/ the A-Spec Body kit and Im looking at either the bronze 19" or the Anthracite 19" Axis Hiro's.

Does anyone have a pic of these wheels on our cars? Im afraid they will look too small even after doing the A-Spec suspension.

PLEASE HELP!!

they are all over the place just search. They are the shiiiiiit. I want them for mine. 19 is the perfect size. Just do a search on Hiro in the 3g section.

I am looking also at the Axis Reverb in 20".

I want to get the ASpec suspension, but Im worried that 20" might rub, and 19" may look too small. I actually would like the idea of a nice big wheel on there with a super clean look.

white wheels usually look super ricey on certain cars. i'd stick with the anthracite and tint your windows.

329 canadian for silver hiro's and the bronze weren't available at that store yet. They have the anthracite in stock but 445 a wheel. Basically the silver with fuzion 245-35-19 would cost me 2600 canadian taxes in and installed

I paid $450 CDN for 19" Anthracite Hiros for my 6MT WDP. I put on Kumho Ecsta MXs for $300/tire.

DAMN, this rim is getting too popular!
