Default axis wheels

Curious if anyone has these wheels.

Wanted to get an idea of how they look.

If that is the super mesh I don't think they make them in the right offsets for the Z. Good looking wheel though. I was thing about getting a set.

They are a great price that so i was considering them.

I guess I will look into the axis 7 mod.

BTW any of you know of other wheels in the 350 / wheel price range.

Seems like all the volk, racing hart, HRE are in the 500-600 per whell range.

no i don't want to spend above 400 per wheel. I use my car for daily driving. I want something that will look good but won't cost me an arm and leg.

racing harts are like 600-800 a pop. so even though they do look great they are not in my price range.

well i am looking at the axis 7 mod those defeniately appeal to me. i really would prefer a mesh wheel but oh well.

Look into the ADR M-Sport, they are an awsome looking wheel and nearly look the same as the BBS mesh wheels. A set of 18" will run you around 1200 without tires.

i agree about adr but my buddies keep telling me to get a little better quality wheel.

the axis 7 mod look great and still are relatively affordable and are a decent quality wheel.

also ADR-m sport are $1050 for a set of 19's.

I think these wheels look great. What I dont' understand is, whenever the topic of this wheel comes up everyone says they won't look good since they only come in 35mm offset, but the wheel everyone else says looks good (and I agree) the ADR m-sport also only comes in 35mm. So why is the ADR m-sport recommended but the axis supermesh isn't, even though they have the same offset?

Nah, I think those Axis wheels will fit. Call Axis up and ask. Don't go by what other people have heard.

The supermesh looks great on the Z, I had plans to stick with 18's though and they only go to 8" widths. The Milano is the same way.....which I think would be killer on a Z.

I have the JIC's which are hella stiff and don't want to run the stiffer 19's. I debated 18x8 all the way around or possibly 18x8 front and 19x8.5 or 9.5 rear.

Do you think staggering from a 8" wheel in front to a 9.5" in the rear would be too extreme, possibly causing the car to understeer too much?

Supermesh are deffinatly nice on the Z. (back on topic) but cleaning will be a real B!tch.

This was the best I've found.......and what sold me on this wheel. I know Axis has a set going on their White 350z but haven't heard if it's done yet or seen pictures. It is a killer wheel though. Here ya go, hope this helps.
