Default 19" Axis Milano's +15 and +20 + STOPTECH

Has anyone tried this combo yet? I'm wondering if the stoptech 14" big brake upgrade will clear these wheels. Please help.
Stoptech has wheel templates to see if brakes will clear, but its too much hassle for me to remove one of my wheels to check. If someone has these wheels which are NOT installed on their car, could you please try the front and rear templates for me and tell me if they will clear? Remember, they are +15/+20 offsets. I'm sure other Milano owners will be very greatful for your help.

sorry this doesnt answer your question totally but i have heard recomended offset limits to be 15 & 25 with those wheels on the z. im sure you can go another 5mm rear since were talking about a difference in less than .200 of an inch & may all the world of difference in looks. i guess your tire size would have more to do with good fitment than anything, sorry i cant help with brake clearance issues.......

yes, your right they dont make a 25mm offset in the milanos. i did the research & found that out myself just recently. there is a guy here locally with those wheels on his silver z. the fitment was very aggressive & he told me that the offsets were 15 front & 25 rear. appearently he didnt know what he had. so i was going off the information he told me thinking a 20mm rear wheel would a bit too much agressive in the rear.....but now i know, sorry!

I've been told that they won't fit the +15/+20 and that you require wheel spacers. (Info came from NEAD).


...do you know if the TPS will fit? or do we have to use the band?
