i think its a nice looking wheel, but it will all depend once its on your car right?.....ive seen a Tc locally lowered with some sort of mesh rim, it looked decent.

if you're gonna let them stay dirty i'd say nope....imo, think "wash time"...too much "wash drama" for me....nice looking though.

i'm a pragmatist.

their not bad, kinda like the ones i wanted! "5Zigen Heidfeld" or "Axis Hiro Antracite"

i know it shows 4 lugs but they come in 5.


Id rather get dark rims for flint mica? But silver would look good too![/url]

I've always felt darker rims for the BSP and FM were necessary, but I am dieing to see Axis Mod 7's on a FM tC.

So, throw those bad boys on and take some pics!

Actually jason, since my TC is silver, those would look better on my car. So mail them to me for free and go buy yourself something darker

Not the same wheel, but kinda of the same Y-Design Spoke. I had to cough up a pretty penny for them though, RacingHart C4 18x7.5. No regrets!



Hopefully this look will somewhat make you reconsider.
