Default I give up. . .

Damnit all, I can't visit this forum anymore. Each time I visit I see someone adding something I wish I did/had. I'm ready to trade this sucka in for a Yaris and just deal with a "true" bone stock car.

Nice Look IMHO.

the offset range from 15mm to 45mm but in 19 you can only get 9.5 in rear i think , but you can get 20's of these rims with 10.5 rear /w 4 in lip ahhhhhhhh now that crazyy

Couple of questions,
what set up are you running, width, offset?

Also,
Are the Axxis hubcentric rims, or did you have to put a hub centering ring?

Thanks,
Thanks! Can't wait to see your set-up.

Mine:
275/30/19 Toyo T1-R
235/35/19 Toyo T1-R

Offset is 40 rear and about 35 in front with spacers

Yes, they are hubcentric.

So EVOTOLEX, I originally got the axis matrix 19's, and they didn't fit on the calipers. Did you have to special order them or did you do any mods to make the wheels fit?
But all in all I am happy with my wheels

Did have to mod some spacers built for Mercedes on the front. They didn't clear the calipers as Axis thought, very close though. We saw a slight nick on the caliper when testing the rotation.

So we moded some Mercedes spacers and they fit perfectly.

Definitely be happy with your wheels as your car is lookin hot.

P.S Keep testing your suspension mods for my reference.

Looks great!

Do the TPMS sensors fit on these rims?

When you state that you had to mod some MB spacers, exactly what did that entail?

Yes, offset on front is approximate due to spacers.
