Well one of two things happened! It either looks sick and he's enjoying them and driving around (which I would do) or he's having issues with fitment and it rubs so bad he couldn't leave the tire shop. lol...for his sake i hope they fit and he's riding around.
They should fit perfectly. The only concern I might have would be in the front. I have a +20 offset in the front (A disk) on my Works and the brake clearance is less than a hair. If Axis made their knockoff in the same fashion they should be ok but it will cut it SUPER close. When I first bolted up my Works I was scared they werent going to clear the caliper.

Okay guys I'm home - had somethings to do (IE run around and show them off........Uploading pics and they will be here shortly............

Okay Guys here they are.......









Okay there they are - We had a little clearance issue w/ the brakes but all sloved w/ a 5mm spacer. I talked to AXIS and the ones they had on the silver box in their ad fit fine......anyone know if the brakes on the 06 are different? Anyway Enjoy the pics.

BTW - those are 205/50/15's and I'm dropped on Goldlines.......

from what i've been told they are 25mm offset so it shouldn't have any major rubbing issues.

*i see you posted pics!!

Looking Nice!!

do you have a 10mm spacer in the rear or is it just stock?

I thought the brake clearance would be an issue with this. I couldnt tell you if there is a difference in brakes between model years. I have an 05.

Looks pretty good. To really pull off the look I would go for a lower drop. with 15s you really need a 2.5" drop or more and a stretched tire and some camber doesnt hurt either.

I think it would look better. I dont like anything bigger than a 195/55/15 on a 15x8 wheel.

sucks about the clearance issue. i wonder if that'll be the issue for everyone else...
on the other hand, the rims didn't come out looking too bad. i had my doubts when i first heard about them - looks good


by any chance have you seen real pics of the white OG's?
