Default 20"AXIS MODS...The Final Say

Okay Guys/Gals,

I am considering these wheels . I have done a search on here and heard some views But I am seriously looking to get these wheels for the following reasons:

1) Aggressive staggered setup with 20X9 front and 20X10 rear <== I Love this look!
2) Good price
3) They come in Black


Now for the flip side,

How is the quality?

Do they significantly look that much different quality-wise in pictures then they do in person?

I dont' want to get these wheels and they quality is so shot that they bend like a contortionist on the slightest uneven road..

Also I dont want the black paint to start chipping after 6 months.

Please chime and help a fellow CL member out.

Those with first hand experience with the wheels , please give your input.

These wheels are going on a Black GS BTW...

Many thanks to everyone for their comments!!

Thumbs up I have 19's

Hey man those wheels are great ,I have the sliver ones with the same staggerd set up on my sliver IS ,but there 19's not 20's. As far as your concern with the paint goes mine are still good and I have had them for over a year now and no chips on the paint yet . And I have hit a couple of pot holes pretty hard and none of the rims bent or crack on me yet

i was in the same situation that you were in man... i bought a set of staggered work 18" and had a chance to buy axis milano's in 20s for the same price and I ran a poll on here...

maybe it's just because i was comparing work vs axis but the work rims won by a landslide.
