A few AXIS hiro questions

OK.
So I am in love w/ Anthracite AXIS Hiro's.
They are a little steep for me in price though.

1. Would 18's look to small since the have a lip?

2. How comparable is the TSW Thruxton?

3. Are there any other manufacturers that make something similar?

Thanks, Mike

18s will look smaller due to lip. I say get 19s if you can afford it. I wanted to buy Hiros but ended up buying Volks and SSRs

Yeah I really want 19's . But I dont' think I can swing it.

That's why I was looking for something similar in looks.

Also: I just ordered Tein H techs and illuminas.
How diff. wil the ride be betweem 18's and 19's?

I see Hiros go for over a grand for a set, but how come these are so cheap? Used?

I have the anthracite 19s, and they do look a little smaller than regular 19s without a lip, of course. if you get 18s, it may look too small on the max. me, wildmanal, and the other person with hiros all have 19s. i dont know of anything else out there like them, but im sure there are some knockoffs out there, there always are. good luck in your search, i just hope you dont have a grey luster max, haha.

well, you have a 4th gen...and its silver, and are in CT. i was just sayin that cuz hes got a 5th gen and lives in NJ, and i like being the only 5th gen on the site, as far as i can tell, with the anthracite wheels. itll be like, a triple whammy if a guy in the same area, with the same car, gets the same wheels, haha.

but im just jokin man, its your car, get whatever you want.
