I really need your opinion ... on the "Axis Penta" wheel

Hello fellow Nico, I always been wanting to buy the "work VS XX: but as we all know, those mother F-er are pricey!! $$$ and my wallet cant cover it. so i search and I saw this wheel.

i think i posted somthing like this earlier but w/e im doing it again.

I want to know what you all think about this wheel? should i get it or no.it cost $290 a peice. and i have a white 97 kouki.

please help me out, all opinion are apreciated! thanks!! (works vs xx are still the sh*t of corse/better)

here are few pix of the wheels.

let me know what you think...



Thanks in Advance!!!

[BrianHarte]

kinda nice actually.

but... pricy still

[ricebow_240sx]

yeah, i been doing alot of search, size 18 on these axis penta is about no more thaN $290.00 each, vs 600 each on the works..

pricy but still not too bad at all.

[S13xCrazy]

i dig em' another wisconsinite!

[Kalypso]

it gets my vote. there are also RPM and Stern wheels.

which I like a lot. you'll get 4 for 500. at nice widths and offsets. and possibly tires if you request them for a little extra. check the store.

i like them as well. a race inspired design with a nice deep lip out back.

[brkn240]

those wheels are sweet! If you got the change, go for it.

[ricebow_240sx]

yes these are nice, too bad .. it only comes in hyper black, i would really love them in gold. them RPM are pretty sweet.

[TerminalVelocity]

Those look a lot like the sportmax 006 which are much cheaper. You might want to look into those.

[ricebow_240sx]

sportmax 006 look decent, do you know if they have them in gold?

does anyone know a wheel that is similiar to works vs xx or axis penta in GOLD color. .. my main search is a rim that similar to works vs xx in gold color.

that'd be nice!!! thanks!

[urcaptnspeaking]

i definately like the sportmax better and WAY cheaper gives you some piggy bank stuffing to save up for those works

[TerminalVelocity]

nope just black, silver, black with red lip, and I think gunmetal.

[240z4u]

I think I have seen your car around town a couple times.

If your looking to buy wheels in the range of quality of Axis , check these out. To be honest , some of these wheels are rather nice looking. But i know 99.9% of people cringe when they see these brand names.

thanks Slappy for your resource, them tenzo are hot. but im actuallly just into them wheels that llooks like work vsxx and Axis. if u catch my drift

[Slappy]

Gotcha.

[916drifter]

tenzo r? slappy? you ok? jkbut the axis wheels look nice to cruise in i dont know about the track tho. nothing can compare to the Work VS-XX...

[Slappy]

tenzo r? slappy? you ok? jk

You cant deny that some of those wheels dont look good. Forget about the brand name , forget that they are listed in the ricer catalogue , clear you mind , and tell me that the Type-M & the DC5 Version 1 are not attractive wheels.

Its like saying the hot girl that just walked past you isnt really hot just because she isnt famous.

I know you said "jk" , but im just saying.......

Dark green zenki, its my daily driver so you are gauranteed to see it at some point. Tinted windows, pretty much stock body, non-stock color. Axis wheels.

I have Axis Reverbs, if you want to see the quality before you spring for the pentas you are welcome to. They are not too heavy, and seem to be strong. I have had them for quite some time now.

Scroll down to the pictures of it in green.

Rims are for sale BTW. Contact me offline if its something you would be interested in.

Evan

[ricebow_240sx]

wow, nice green... prolly the best green one i seen so far. Did you paint that yourself or shop?... cause im looking for a paint job soon. .. do you know anybody.. or deals that you know of ? etc.. please let me know.

[240z4u]

Nissan super green pearl. Has no color variants. I am pretty sure its not a USDM color. It does look a bit different now that it has cured out. It was under very bright light so the pearl really popped.

No connections anymore bodyshop wise, I knew a guy who sprayed my car last year but he is not a body man anymore.

I did the bodywork, my car is NOT perfect but good enough for a daily.

Evan

[ricebow_240sx]

i wouldnt do it, but the color you chose is nice, especially when its different too. oh and yes, not usdm color. def not! . ill see you around town, once the damn snow is gone.

[240z4u]

alright, see you around I am sure.

You ever visit great lakes dragaway? I plan on it this summer.

Evan

[ricebow_240sx]
