yeah i got 15mm spacers in the back, just not in this picture. I should've went with 20 or 25 tho cuz 15mm still dont make it flush with the fender but looks much better than w/o

Nice wheels. They look similar to the Weds Kranze wheels that TLW has. What size and offset are they.

You know TLW and I discuss this in Carlisle. I ordered some Weds and the never came. ( just got my refund back) These wheels didn 't have the offsets Weds offered but they fit just fine. The Weds rim didn't offer the 4.5 inch lip.
These rims were a little cheaper.. so I am satisfied. Maybe I will get some Weds for the next whip. I just want to do more research on them. I have been hearing some nightmare stories on "Gray Market" rims

I will not put this company on blast because they gave me a sincere apology, 100% refund and promise me another set at cost COD. They also gave me a heads up on fake rims hitting the US. I should have gone through High Society VIP you probably had some in stock but I guess you guys get too many PM's and emails. I wanted to discuss my wheel purchase ever since Carlisle.

Good eye Mark, I guess the center caps gave it away. How do you think they look? I just like a brand that I can get in contact with distributers and not wait on the middle man to be my voice. Yes they are one piece, tangible for some but I don't think I will see half of my city rolling like this. I know they were not cheap in price and are holding up well over few bumps in the city. I feel EXE (Axis) is respected. I brought my car off of ebay for a little over the price I paid out for the WEDS. I really wasn't keeping it real with myself by spending that much for this car. I really hated sending money out like that and seeing no product the whole summer. It really slowed down my build, created chaos in my household and ruined my summer. I am happy with my purchase by far no hub rings, no waits , no vibration over 90 and the hate I get is priceless! Look out! I am spending some money on the next whip I will holla D-Auto or VIP. But, would I get with this brand again? Yes if they have some new styles and the offsets I need. I just can't and won't wait for 8 weeks, then another 8 weeks, etc when I put out money like that..
