Either wheels will definitely compliment your exterior very well.

I'm a big fan of the axis milano because of the lip action.

I don't think you can go wrong either way, both are nice looking 5-spoke wheels.

before you jump into a set of wheels - consider the wheel weights of them first.

They are surprisingy not heavy as they look. My 19" fronts were about 35lbs with tires (General UHP). There rears were slightly heavier. The OEM wheels I replaced them with were much heavier than that.

I like the simplicity of you can looks clean as is ..

I personally think the wheel choice is clean and simple ...

Axis have been played out though ..

best of luck deciding ...
