Luff M1 vs. Axis Hiro?
 
Well, I recently curbed my passenger side wheels to sh!t. Focking log was on the road at road work site and I couldn't see it at coz it was at night and just swiped it... ARRRRGGGGGG. I was lucky not to cause any serious damage.

Anyway, that got me thinking, maybe I should get some new wheels instead of repairing Hiro's. :p I'm on budget, so I cannot afford Volks or anything like that... so don't flame me too much for resorting to cheaper wheels. I'm thinking about picking up Luff M1's as they are pretty darn cheap and I heard good things about them.

The weight should be about same(26-27lbs) and both are cast wheels.

So I would like to get some opinions.

1)Repair Hiro's or get M1's and sell Hiro's for cheap?

2)Also, which color M1's do you guys think will look best on my car?

Here are pics of my car with Hiro's:

Keep the Hiro's. They look sick on you car. any reason why you havent lowered your car yet?

DRG35R 06-28-2006 10:06 AM

+1 for the Hiro's. What are the offsets for those? Lower that ride.

Rookie84 06-28-2006 10:52 AM

Yeah... you guys are like 5412395th and 5412396th people to tell me to lower my car. Haha. I'm just being a lazy bum these days... I'm gonna drop the car on 04.5 Z shocks and Z H-techs pretty soon. :)

Anyway, thanks for the opinions. Keep them coming! :)

Hiro's look great! Keep em.

Purcha 06-28-2006 11:43 AM

IMO the Hiro's are killer on your car. I like the Hiro's they really suit your car and the fact that I almost bought them might sway my opinion a bit ;).

LuXXXz 06-28-2006 12:46 PM

i would definitely keep the ones you have now

Z H-Techs are great spring. Perfect drop IMHO. I would go with D-Specs so you can tweak your ride. What are your offsets on those Hiros?

^+1

Garyv01 06-28-2006 09:56 PM

stick to Axis they look sick on your coupe...by the way what kind of bulbs or those in your clear corners?...they look good

Rookie84 06-28-2006 10:21 PM

So the majority is for Hiro's, eh? Thanks for all of the opinions and compliments :) I think I'll just live with the rash until winter and fix the wheels then. I might even paint the centers gunmetal or black while I'm at it. ;)

DRG35R: I believe my Hiro's are +22 offset all around. At least that's what I was told since I bought these used.

Garyv01: I am using wide angle LED from superbrightleds.com in strips and just regular 5 or 6 LED bulb (can't recall exactly) on corners. A bit blue for my liking, but it looks good regardless.

truplay8 06-29-2006 01:28 AM
