Picture Request: Evo w/ Axis Wheels

I am from nyc notorious for badroads and crater sized potholes... These demand for wider tires and durable wheels... And at the same time Cast wheels are just so easily replaced.. What's the point to go forged

Anyway.. There are a few sets of axis wheels that I'd like to see on an evo

Axis Gravity
Axis Super Hiro & Hiro
Axis Halo
Axis Circuit
Axis Decade
Axis Milano

Thanks guys...

Reason: currently I own an 07 acura tl-s... But I think I want to pickup an 06 evo mr and I just love axis wheels

My current wheel setup
Axis Gravity 18x9 +40 all around
(like everyone I love the concave look)
15mm Spacer to clear the brembo brakes
8mm spoacer rear to make it flush with the rear fender lines

PSSsSt... I am in manhattan... I had a set of te37 on my ek... hit a bump on the FDR (bye bye)...

I went to the 18x9 cuz I drool everytime I see a evo with the concave look...


I was gonna get some gramlight 57pro's... but honestly... the gravity was half the price...

P Ham: they aren't heavy at all... they weigh the same as GramLight 57
axis circuit are made by rays (16lbs) - http://axiswheels.com/wheels.php?id=circuit

Had axis superhiro (sold in persuit of the concave look)

hahaha... i have Axis on my evo, and i love them..... heavy, i dont think so.. 20lbs. for a 18x8.5 isnt that heavy.... espeically for a wheel that cost nearly 3-4 times less than volk, advan, rays, ccw's, etc....... not everyone can afford crazy expensive wheels, so some have to settle for what they can get, and for the money, axis makes great wheels!


you didnt mention the reverb on the wheels your requesting, but heres some pics anyways
