19 X 8.5 et 35 and 19 X 9.5 et 45 Axis Milanos. These wheels don't come in this in this finish, so I knocked off the silvers and got these done at Wheels America, whom I highley recommend for any custom wheel work.

Now all I need are some tires...Any suggestions are welcomed.....

 

congrats
those will look nice on your 8

 

Thanks. Yeah the rivets make the wheels look sick. I'm not sure if you read the linked thread, but after dropping these off I got a call from the shop saying that it would be impossible to keep the rivets with their original finish since they were glued on (unfortunately its not a 2-piece wheel). So I was like whatever, just paint them black I guess. To my surprise I picked up the wheels and the rivets were there. Mike at wheels america houston hoooked it up...

 

cool deal
im not sure what you meant by no 19 inch tires but I have nittos in 19 on my car

 

They look so much like the stock rims, but you get the black and polished lip, along with 19 inch sizing. That's nice. Looks good.

 

looks great...kinda tires you getting?

 

Thanks...another huge reason I am happy going this route. I know for a minute I was hitting myself in the head when those RH-CX's were recently in the sale forum.

As for tires, I'm not a 100% sure what route i am going to go. My budget for tires is around the 800 range with all the other stuff (mounting, balancing...) Plus I'm gonna make an attempt to see if TPMS works with these since they do with most axis wheels. Any chance I could use my stock lug nuts and locks or is that something else I need to add to the list.

Been looking at Nitto, Khumo, Falken, or Hankook.

 

I have Dunlop Direzza's...I'm alright with them I run my car pretty hard in Malibu and San Bernardino...they hold up pretty well. Lugs have to do with clearances. I couldn't use my stock lugs because they wouldn't have given me enough room to get a lug wrench around them without scratching the wheels.
