i've been wanting to buy the axis shine for a while now...

i happened to look through ebay and saw this dude sell these

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=280110886165

and i won =-D hell of a deal for a minor scuff

anyone know the exact tire size i need :-\ sorry im a lil noob when it comes to tire sizes and stuff

 

first of all the offsets are horrible. its gonna look like you got a wide body Z and forgot to get the right wheels. go ahead and order some spacers. 15mm for both the rear and the fronts. as for tires, 245/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rears. thats another 1k in tires and $300 or so for spacers. good luck.

 

>:-\

 

yeah for the extra you are gonna pay for spacers, you should have bought new ones with the right offsets.

 

well i was lookin at the other axis shine..they still got the same offset

pm this guy.

 

tucked like a ****.

 

you could have PM'd Robbie (Driven1) he's local (MD) and could have gotten you a WAY better deal than that. Take a look at my Shop Directory thread in Mid-A, he's located under Fresh Designs. You think you're saving by buying from ebay, but it's going to cost more in the end if you don't know what you're buying. If you insist on e-bay, I actually know of a guy who sells the same set of wheels for a 350z NEW (un-mounted and zero scratches), and he's a reputable shop too for $1200 shipped. Please don't jump the gun and purchase something just because it *looks* like a good deal: this guy has only 10 feedback! Mid-A is your best friend =)

 

tell him to hook it up

i havent officially paid for it ^_^ ill get a warning but w.e a better deal

 

lol you shoulda thought this through =P

 

didn't think it get this complicated :-\

is the offset really that bad?
i don't know anything about rims like that...

 

yes that offset is really high...

 

Need something in the +15 to +30 range to look right.

 

gotta remember offset 20/20 seems to be a good balance.
the lower, the more agressive.
the higher, the wheels are going to be tucked in more.

 

Good idea, buy first, ask questions later!

 

You got hosed.

 

The statement below from his eBay site should have clued you in that there was a problem already because of the high offsets:
