.... i'm really interested in a set of these.

 

There is a member on here who used to have them.... Johnny (http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=192871)

but i have been told they are 19x9 front and 19x10.5 rears.

 

I've just rung DARE and they say the widest they do, or have ever done, is 9.5" rear

 

He said the best thing is an 8" front and 9.5 rear.

 

Just wondered if anyone can enlighten me?? i basically want them the same width as in the link above etc, but 8 and 9.5 widths dont sound too wide to me?!?!?

 

 

maybe its the offset on them that suits it i dont know but all help muchly apricated guys :D

No his (like mine) are the original Axis Hiro's which were done in 19x10.5 (I have 19x9.5 and 19x8.5 staggered fitment). The Dare ones are ripped off copys.

You can still get the Hiro's from Axis in the usa but shipping is a killer (i know this as i whacked one of mine and it needed replacing, the cheapest shipping for 1 wheel was $200 and took 6 weeks - by boat)

Also mate i noticed all the axis ones have 'axis' stamped onto the spokes, whereas the ones in johnnys thread on the link i posted dont have a stamp. They do look wider than 9.5 but not sure if they can be???

James, these are exactly the same as the Dare Hiros but under the Axe brand name. They come in 8.5x19 and 10.5x19.

Dont know the offsets though sorry. I'm sure that info can be found though:)

 

Axe are not bad quality either for what you pay.

 

ahh cool thanx mate!! ;)

 

if you have the deep dish wider wheels at the front oo does that look a bit odd and loose the shape you get from the staggered look?

IMO it always looks better deeper on the back. But thats not the issue;)

 

The supra is designed for staggered fitments really and if you go too wide upfront you will get rubbing, handling issues, turning circle issues, etc. The very widest people have is 9.5 at the front I think.

hope so!

 

they only do a 19x8.5 front tho :( but a 19x10.5 rear :)

 

just getting my mate who owns an alloy wheel shop to ring the company direct for a trade price, fingers crossed!!!

 

That's handy:d

 

Those sizes will be just fine:) Remember its the offset that is the main thing when filling the arch.

 

Take the option to get some decant rubber on them. And keep on top of the cleaning and they'll do you proud.
