they (Axis Hiros)have not been release by customs yet.
(I Know This Because I Have a Set On Order and I call them everyday.) www.wheelstuduio.com has a special offer to all 350z.com members. (CODE G.F.)
19x8.5 for $325.(each) and 19x9.5 for $350.each
Give them a call they orderd over 100 pcs. For Stock.
there toll free phone number is (888)288-0070
any idea how long customs will take? I was under the impression that they had passed customs already. That site has good prices but i couldn't figure out what kind of tires you get for the deal. i paid about 1500 for my rims alone from NEAD. damn. oh well. live and learn.

Dang, I keep looking at that pic and the more I look, the less I like the wheels on the car. I will reserve judgement until we see some better pics. I am not saying it is a bad wheel, but when I 1st saw the pics NOT on the car, I thought they would be the best wheels for the Z, now they have dropped to "only" TOP 5

Axis, by far, makes the best cast wheels for the money.

NEAD will beat other companies deals, so if you tell em that price, they'll beat it. www.forperformance.com

have they changed the way they build thier cast wheels? I have heard horror stories about bent Axis wheels. I wonder if they are using a new process??

i dont' think Axis even has the rims yet... the ones in the pic i'm guessing were probably special made promos for Axis (James)... plus i think it's pretty good marketing to leave us in the dark :P... look at the number of replies to this thread and the previous one

I was actually contemlating these as my 2nd choice right behind my VOLK GT-7's. But since I have ran my '5-spoke' MODA's for so long I decided I needed a change. That, along with the uncertainty of arrival of these wheels here locally. I would like to see a Silver Z with the Silver Hiro's though.
