04 DP Coupe w/ new wheels - Axis Options

After months (literally) of trying to decide on a set for the car I went with Axis Options. These are brand new wheels from Axis and the minute I saw them I knew they were what I wanted.

The specs are:
20x8.5 +20mm with 245/35 Falken FK452's on the front.
20x9.5 +20mm with 275/30 Falken FK452's on the rear.

Suspension:
Eibach Pro Kit
Tokico HP Struts/Shocks
Ichiba rear camber kits w/ toe bolt modification

Due to the great price on the wheel/tire combo I was also able to order my suspension at the same time. I think that this drop is perfect! The front and rear wheel wells are both the exact height from the ground so the car sits even unlike some other spring installations that I've seen.

I have to give a HUGE thanks to Adrian and Charles at B2 Autodesign for the service they provided. Thank you guys... I appreciate everything!

I am extremely satisfied with this purchase. Initially I was thinking of going with much more expensive wheels and I am glad that I did not. I wouldn't have been any happier with a more expensive set. Rather it would have been opposite as I would have always been worried that the wheels were going to get damaged!

Ok, I've said enough... here's the pictures:

After suspension install:

Wheel gap nearly eliminated -








Normally people try to be flashy with Benjamin's or iPhones. I went straight to the Washington and some change. That's a 4 inch lip on the rear wheel.

And to wrap it up, two more shots -




Thanks for looking!

Ah! Thanks for the reminder, I knew it felt like I was forgetting something.
I edited it up above but the offsets are +20mm for all four.

I'm not really interested in using spacers at all. I would definitely have to roll the rear fenders if they stuck out further. As it is I might rub in the rear after the alignment is complete.

Thanks for the compliment! Now I need a custom paint job like yourself

And yes! B2 was awesome!!

Seriously...? I know it was late Saturday night so maybe you were loaded

Read the thread again, I give you everything you ask for. Including the specs and telling you that the car is lowered with an Eibach Pro kit.

Thank you Charles! And yes they are. I looked them over GOOD and didn't find any flaws with them at all.

Haha, I was wondering what you were smoking.
I don't rub currently. I will likely need to roll my fenders though because if I get the camber adjusted more positive in the rear it's going to be really close to rubbing if it doesn't.

It's all good. Everyone has different tastes in what style they like.
