Thanks Lil Abner for answering that one!
I was busy watching the Niners suck. The bronze are great! I was all set on black, but hesitated when i saw the bronze, but glad I stuck with black. Tinted the windows yesterday, badges are back on and painted black (will post pictures once it stops raining for two minutes). They're great wheels, I love them. |

BRB...saving for a bronze set of Konig Feathers... Quote:
Is there a way I can circumvent the TPMS without hacking up my wiring harness? Can I install the TPMS's on these Konigs? |

Those are my friend's rims. I'm not sure which Axis rims those are, but after a little Google search, I think they're the Axis Maglite. I'm sure you can use the stock rubber on those (if your car came with 15's).

Here's the problem, I can't find them new anywhere online now. I'm not sure if they are discontinued, but I'm sure if they are, Axis probably has a revised version of it for sale. lol

Scratch that, I don't see any 4-spoke wheels in their line up. Best bet is either CL or find another 4-spoke wheel. How about the Rota Auto-X (in 15x6.5, 4x100, +40 offset)

OOPS, my bad again, those Axis rims may also be the Racer X model.

Axis Maglites are discontinued but are pretty common to find used.
Also, Work Equip 01 or Work Equip 01 replica's are pretty similar. If you ask Jeff @ Micro Image he can locate similar wheels for you and beat anyone else's advertised price. |

Also, Rota Auto X are similar too, but a split 4 spoke.

A lot of good choices here.
A shame those Axis rims were discontinued, they were perfect for me. I won't risk used rims on my car, however. |

I'd recommend emailing a link to this thread to Jeff at Micro Image -- sales.microimage@gmail.com -- he knows his wheels and will help you find exactly what you are looking for. There may be a brand new version of a similar Axis-style wheel that he can get for you.
He was helping me look for wheels a little while back and was extremely helpful. |
