mmmmmmmm....lip! NEW pics 1-10-04 of my new axis Mod 7's!
the fronts are 18x7.5" +42mm offset with a 2" lip
the backs are 18x7.5" +35mm offset with a 3" lip!
got the center caps on the rear today and snapped some kinda better pictures, by the time i was done washing the car the sun was behind my house, but they do show off the lipage good

hells ya you can get a ride joe! i swear i was thinking the ride would be SO much worse going from the stock's to the 18's - and really on the way home on the 405, it didn't feel that much different - not really more bouncy at all - maybe a little more harsh, but nothing drasticly different, i'm very happy with the ride, much more than i thought i would be!
the tires were $504 out the door mounted ballanced, and installed on my ride - , for nankang ns-II's 215/35/18 at america's tire store in torrance, the sidewall is nice and square and doesn't seem streched out over the rim, they have a nice look to them, i'm real happy - just wish they had the right lugs in stock for the rear, but it's all good, i'm going to see if i can't find another store that has them in stock tomorrow so i can rock the center caps at the meet on sunday

I had the same problem too, motnhs ago when I go t he maxis lip wheels. Tavis told me that they would be easy to find (lug nuts that is)
I looked at 5 places and no luck then I found this automotive store in Anaheim next to Wheel Warehouse and they has a few lest..I bought them all out but I am sure by now they have more in....
I'll bring a sample at the meet .....

We kinda got twins running around now.....good thing Adrian gots the Carbon Fiber Fever going on while Besk's got the simple and mild look.
Either way those rims look sick on your rides....good choice gentlemen.

thanks adrian, i found some locking lugs that *almost* fit - so i spent about 1 1/2 hours grinding down the backside of the center caps to accomidate the extra heigth of the lugs
one came out perfect, the other is a tiny bit crooked (you can only tell if you're like right up on the wheel) , maybe i'll pick up a new center cap and pick up the lugs you're talking about to fix that
