The wheels really are beautfiul with a "black shadow" finish that you really have to see in person to get the full effect.
If only the lips carried that same glistening chrome shine of JDM lips such as the Maya.
mmm

yea those r the milano's...i dont have a digi cam (i gave it to my brother) but my friend took some pics tonite but it was in the dark and it is kinda hard to c...but when he sends them to me ill post them up and when i get a better chance ill ask my photographer buddy to take some pics. So far everyone likes them better than the volks...but the only thing they say is "but its axis and those r volks" so i guess the volks get the name recognition for quality etc. but the milanos get the style category.
The only gripe i have with the wheels r the centercaps...they dont really match....like the rims r really simple and clean but then on the centercap it says "Axis" i guess they tried to keep it as simple as possible but i wish i could find/fit a centercap that has the lexus "L" logo.
And if Manaray sees this and says anything...all i gotta say is...i STILL have the volks in the garage!!! hehe

Axis/Milano - KNOCK OFF, Mediocre quality, Not very good in terms of details....cheap, cast wheels. Well respected by ricers. And that "ricer" 3-piece "look" on a 1-piece wheel...
VOLK 100%. I'd rather have stock wheels then Axis. They (Axis) makes ONE good wheel, the 3-piece Se7en (which is a knock-off of the Intensive Hunk)....

Hey, I can sugar coat next time... 
Wouldn't you just rather hear the truth? No doubt that they look nice but so does a Folex (Fake Rolex) from about 5 feet away. I mean it'd be one thing if they were high quality forged or even cast and real 3-piece or 2-piece but they're "lowest common denominator" wheels...Cast, 1-piece, cheap...but hey, if you like 'em, it's your car, you can do what you wish...
