Default Ordered 19" Axis Hiro's in Anthracite 8.5/9.5 width and 20/25 offset =)

I'm soooo excited; I ordered them off one of the guys off of Ebay. I will update this thread with pics by the end of this week!

What tires should I put on them? 245/275? or 245/285? I don't need a camber kit If i'm not dropped right?

Thanks for all the helpful information I got here, which helped me decide on this purhcase.

Nice which color did you get?

Yeah I'm leaning towards 245/275 so far.

go 275 in the rear as 285 will be a bit on the wide side with a 9.5" width

im still wanting people to try a 265/30/19 front and 275/30/19 rear combination. You can get a set of those for around $600 shipped. not the best performing tire but very low wear. I dont track my Z so performance tire isnt everything to me, rather have longer tire lifespan.

How does having a wider tire give you increased wear? What brand are they?

Nexx can you show me a link to that tire?

I bought General 205/15/40's for my Civic EX and man they last forever!!!
OK so they're touring tires, but still.

I put those generals on the Civic when it had like 68k miles. Now it has 105k!!! and There's still atleast 1/4 to 1/3 thread left!!!

=)

I can't give you the direct link but go to www.tiresavings.com and manually input either 265/30/19 or 275/30/19.

Here's a better pic of the complete set! Yeah I finally have rims.

This is my first set of aftermarket wheels I've ever purchased for a car. =p I've had a car since 2000.
