Default Help With Wheels!?

I have a chance to pick up some very good looking axis wheels for $700 ....I have not really heard of them but i dont really have the money to afford some nice work wheels. Any opinions on AXIS would be greatly appreciated.

They are decent rims. I am never really met or heard anyone complain about the company and i know people who have run them for years. Offsets are conservative and yes they will fit. Are you getting rid of your OZ Racing wheels?

Axis wheels are decent wheels for the money. I have not heard many issues regarding these wheels.

I like the wheels you have now. Very clean design especially with the step lip. If you can afford it, maybe own both sets and switch it up occasionally?

I like your current wheels better too! Sometimes you get the urge to switch things up though. The one thing that jumps out at me on those Axis is the logo on the lip, I don't think I like that; otherwise the Axis don't look bad either, just feeling the OZ's more.
