Thinking about grabbing a new set of 18's for this coming spring/summer. Tell me what you think of these two wheels:

Mesh Wheel...something besides the C2 Evo that everybody has

The first wheel is not a copy of the C2. It is actually based off of the BBS LM wheels, which is wicked. THe second wheel, is just the Se7en modified to have a fat lip. But, I think the lip would look too big on our cars.

Of course, I could always go with the C2 Evo or with this new wheel:

The Axis Seven is actually a 3 peice wheel..What price range are looking at spending? There's alot of PHAT A$$ wheels the people aren't running on DSM's every day.Like HRE,Kensis,Lowenharts,Fiske,ect....

You need to check Axis' site again. This is NOT the 3 piece wheel. The is the new Se7en Mod, which is a modified se7en, fitted with a big fat lip. It looks like a 3 piece but its not. They retail for $280 per wheel in the 18x7.5 size.

I am only looking to spend no more than $1200 on wheels. But, I also get alot of rims at cost through our distributor so that helps out a bunch.

Deepdish, big lips own, nuff said.

You and I both share the same opinion. Deep Dish is the sizzle. I currently have some 5Zigen Typhoons which have about a 2.5" polish lip on them, and they look great when clean.

I am going to wait for the weather to get a bit better, then I just might be snagging those Big lip se7en mods.

Next up..some photoshop work.

Later.

Those the the Racing Hart CR wheels. There are two CR series, one is a 3 peice wheel and the other is a one piece wheel. The pic I posted is a 1 piece wheel.

The first two wheels are the new Axis wheels. I actually sell those if you are interested.

Later.

mesh wheels. for some reason, that lip looks a tad too big imo. hah.
 
The new wheel you showed with the six spoke design is boss too. If I were you and going for the sporty/contemporary look I would go with the new six spoke style.

The C2 Evo looks good on any car. It gets my vote:dsm:
 
i would go with the first ones, but then again i chose those as my rims once they came out:D
