2 thousand....you planning on 18's? There is a big price bubble between 18 and 19's, especially because you could end up using your stock tires if forced to.

When you call, see how many sets they have available at 19x8.5. I would still love to get that set for my suger baby.

Good morning folks
Update on the rims:
Axis called me yesterday, can you believe they only had 3 rims....omg, 3 freakin rims...I wanted to cry.....so I thought about it and called them back and said if they could fine me another rim that I wanted the set....they called me back in 1 hr cuz they found one in Illinois....YIPPEE...so I just have to wait now till they ship it to Cali then they will ship to me....
Sorry Scott...thats all they had....
but when I was searching on ebay I did find a site that has the Hiro and I got an email from them yesterday that they have them painted and that bronze is an available color...if you want the link let me know, I will get it for you....
PS>.......many tanx to RSD for her suggestions.....its hard to believe that she keeps me grounded ......w00t!!!

.:. causing mischief
w00t w00t! Our phone conversation about it cracked me up: "Tell them you are old enough to afford these. Yea, I should say my check WONT bounce. Yea and then tell em to get off their asses and go FIND that last one for you. Yea! Theyve got to want to get rid of THREE rims. I know, why do they only have three?"
Still makes me chuckle! Sooooo glad it worked out (tho I am not happy they found out I was hiding that last one in my basement. I should have hid it better!!)
