I am selling a set of four Axis Widetrack wheels. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and will fit most 5 lug Mazdas, Nissans, Infinitys, Acuras, some mitsubishis, subarus, s2000, mustang, ect. Despite their staggered offset appearance, the wheels are actually 18x8.0 +40 all around.



The front tires are 225/45/18r Goodyear Eagle GT with 95% tread left and the rear tires are 245/40/18r Goodyear Eagle GT tires with about 95% tread. The wheels and are basically brand new, only used during the spring and summer months.

to the top!

Open to Offers :]

 

Bumpin' it :]

 

weight?
sell without tires?

 

-about 19lbs pr wheel
-looking to sell with the tires only because I have no use for them at the moment.

 

those tires are way to wide for those rims...

 

This is not a "tire fitment" discussion thread. I've added the words "for sale" to the thread title to make this more clear for everyone.

Thanks,
-Mike

 

all i'm doing is making note of this to which ever buyer because you could run into problems with running a tire that is wider than the rim (ex. traction control especially on the RWD) and you can tell from the 4th picture the rim is just inside the tire.

 

Eagle GT Tires have what Goodyear calls a "RIM PROTECTOR" on them, which is essentially added rubber to the sidewall of the tire, which is designed to extend past the lip of the wheel it is mounted on; effectively protecting the lip of the wheel from damage.

here are some other pictures of these tires mounted on other wheels:











Here is a diagram of the DSC system:
2004 RX-8 - O-2a Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) System

This system is "sensor-driven" and "dynamic" (hence the name DSC); meaning that it will adapt based on the amount of traction that is available at each individual wheel- if it didn't, this system would be more like switching differentials from an "open" to a "2-way", which it's not.

The dynamic capability of this system allows all of the sensors to "pick-up" the speed of each individual wheel and make calculations to limit the speed of some of the wheels. So changing the WIDTH of the wheels will not limit the function of the DSC.

Changing the wheel DIAMETER (not the width) from the OEM 18" DIAMETER to a 19" or 20" wheel DIAMETER, may have an effect on the transmission speed sensor, but these AXIS wheels are the same DIAMETER as the OEM Rx8 wheels and as such, will not effect how the transmission speed sensor functions.

thats just weird never seen a tire setup that way to each his own, but i guess that helps with preventing curb rash
