I like those wheels. It's ok on red but looks best on black like adrian's. Actually I like Adrians car the best.

Not sure if it will look on tit grey, cuz i have tit grey and grey on grey is tacky.

Looks good man.

I have a question about the gas cap though. I have never actually examined one before, does it sit fluss with the panel or is there a lip? and those are dummy holes around the edge right?

keep up the good work.

I'm planning on doing a 1" drop pretty soon after I install my M/S body kit. Tring to stay high enough so I don't scrape my driveway :o

Those look AWESOME!

congrats on a great choice...

BTW, if you are looking to get Hiro's...(or other wheels)

http://www.forperformance.com/axis/hiro/axishiro.html

I have nothing to do with them (i.e. "mention my name and I get a free valve stem" b.s.)

I'm not sure how the pricing compares to others as I wasn't shopping Axis stuff, but these guys were great to deal with and beat all pricing that I found on Gram Lights.

Can't wait to see they look with the MS kit!

Just finished installing my M/S front bumper. MAN! that was alot easier to install than I thought :D took about an hour for the complete install an I must say you couldn't ask for a better fit and finish. Also the gray on the bottom of the M/S bumper matches the color on my Hiro's, looks GREAT!!! I will post more pics soon.
