Default Axis Hiro Anthracite on a Silver GS- Anyone?

What's up folks...

I've been lookin' at these Axis Hiros in Anthracite, and was wondering if any of you out there has 'em on a silver GS...

I did the search, and came up with the photoshop that Seize did(which makes me want to order), but I just wanna see a real live silver GS rocking them..

Anyone?

they actually look pretty good on the silver.. I know on the Axis website they have them on a white GS and they look pretty good to.. You can't go wrong the Axis a nice quality wheel.. Contact D2 for your wheel needs..

I have a set in my garage that I got for my Millennium Silver GS. It has a really aggressive offset so it is suppose to sit flush (+25 rear, +35 front). But I have not put them on yet because of I want to get my suspension first, and get some different tires. But here is a quick and dirty test fit on one side. Again, the tires are too wide, with no drop, and only installed on one side, so it looks really off. But you get the idea.

Sorry the car and wheels are filthy too

I'm actually thinking about selling them, because my wife is driving the car now, and these wheels might be too aggressive for her.

Looks good!

I'm still on the fence about whether or not to get these, or some sort of mesh style..

I think the mesh style would be nice as well.. Check the gallery for some pics..

Just remember you really can't go wrong with any five star type of wheel with a lip.. GL.. I say go with either one..

Hey do you have side pics of your car with the Hiros?

Silver looks really clean too... Also, what kind of suspension are you running?

WHOA...

That PS looks amazing.

I think I'm seeing into the future.

Now the question is.. If I run a fat setup(I drive quite a bit), do you think that the Tanabe NF210 would provide an adequate drop based in the increased size of tire? Or do I just bite the bullet and go with the DF210..

Don't get me wrong, I'd like to get some TEIN CS, but my ride has pretty low miles and I'd like to get the most out of my stock struts before really upgrading the whole combo..
