    Wow at those wheels

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=38662

    Plus they are dirt cheap (well still 24 hours left) with tires for 19" wheels..

    I just paid WAY more for my carlsson. Fortunatly mine are carlsoon, but those Axis really look good on the car (huge lips)

    I make a prediction they will end at $1400 with 4 hours left, and add the shipping, its a good deal if you love them.

    Dunno if I should sell my Carlsson 2/5 and get those.

    Carlssons have the brand name reputation (and value), but those Axis are 19" instead of 18". I think it would be better staying with my 18s for our very bad road conditions.

    Still I'd love to have a big dish like those. Not sure about 9.5x19 in the rear how it would fit.

    Honestly 19 looks nice but for every day driving is really harsh. And hopefully you don't live where there are bad roads.

    Also, and imho most important, is that unless they are light, they can be soo heavy and wear out your suspension fast. Handling might get sluggish if heavy too.

    So depends on what you want. looks wise theya re sweet. Performance wise they can be a negative unless you get some light ones.

    Carlsson 2/5s are nice! Stick with those since you already have em. And then keep on the lookout for these wheels used as they will probably hold their value less than the carlssons.

    yeah I will stick with the resale value of my Carlssons.. plus 2/5 are rare compared to 1/5.

    And in quebec we have very bad road conditions, so 19 would be pushing it.

    If you ever decide to sell it let me know. I'm interested in buying them. I'm in Toronto and can drive up
