Nismos all the way. There have been posts regarding the quality of Hiros...please search this board. Haven't heard any complaints regarding the Nismos...and they're lightweight... and Nissan may even pick up the tab when your tires feather. I've always been partial to silver given the door handles...but the bronze rims do look good on PPW.

I ended up getting the Axis Hiro's in silver and man do they look good. I get complements all the time from everyone, and I even see people walk by my car and stare at it when i am inside a shop.
In my opinion, you would be better off getting the silver Hiro's. The problem with the antracite Hiro's is that they have a polished lip. The reason the Volks you have pictured above look so good, is because they are all one color. Don't get me wrong, some people love them but I am jsut not a fan of the black wheel with polished lip unless u have some serious body modifications. And by the sound of it, you are not going to have that any time soon as a poor college student.
Do yourself a favor and get the 19" silver Axis Hiro's, you won't be disappointed.

Just noticed you're just North of me up in Van. There's a guy around here selling a set of staggered 19" ADR M-Sports in silver. They're almost new, and really cheap. It's just rims, so you can choose your own tires. Just shoot me a PM if you're interested...

I have Anthracite Hiro's on my PPW and I love it. Dont listen to all the Axis haters with the Hiro's crack blah blah blah song and dance. It was one batch many moons ago that had the problem.
