Default Axis Milano, where to buy?

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy Axis Milano w/ tires. I did a search and learned to stay away from Spy Engineering. I was looking to get 19x8.5/9.5 w/ 15 & 20 offset. Wheels would be 245/35/19 fr, and 275/35/19rear. From what I researhed, this is a good wheel size and tire size combo. What do you think? Any Axis owners have any recommendations?

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Thanks, Mark

Spy Engineering has a semi bad reputation and are over priced.

Being that you want Axis, the west coast dealers have a lot more specials (so Discount probably can't get you the best deal in this case).

Try WheelStudio, or see if VictoriaTire can get them. There's also wheelsnext (free shipping), but I've read some stories about them as well.

Sorry to be nosy, but what was the total?

Milano's are on of the wheels I might be getting. Please post pics when you get them on as well! The pics I've seen on this site so far (sans the G35 and Axis car) have all got the high offset in the rear with no lip! Yours should look nice with the +15 +20.

How did they mess up your order? They said that I should receive the wheels in about 1.5 weeks. I'll hold my breath until I get them!

I agree with xTTer the worst experience i've ever had (wheestudio, gabriel) i had order a set of axis supermesh, he said it would be 10 business days,never got the wheels even after a month. he lies,does'nt communicate,makes all kinds of excusses. if u want more details i will e-mail you the letter i wrote the owner michelle. had to go to the BBB to find out they have a issue allready, after being in business for hardly a year. here is my e-mail address dawdonne@aol.com

SOUNDS LIKE WE GOT A WHEELSTUDIO EMPLOYEE HERE!!!Actually I was very curtious w/wheelstudio but they were not with me.And I am not the only person on this site that has had many problems with "wheelstudio", there are many others.As for your third marriage comment, I have never been married.I am young,single and have CEO attached to the end of my name.But I am not nearly as cool as a guy who answers telephones for a wannabe wheel store.Also you spell and a-n-d, not Anfd.You better get going, I think I hear somebody calling wanting to get ripped off.....

Let's just squash this thread. Everyone has had different experiences with different companies. We all know that. Anyway, thanks for the heads up. Obviously you got screwed by Wheelstudio, but you never explained the situation. Enlighten us... Feel free to PM me to share you experience. If I have any regrets with my purchase from WS, i'll be sure to jump on your bandwagon.

Btw... This is the internet. Who uses spell check anyway...










...You mispelled "curtious"
