Axis Elite wheels. yay or nay ?

Dudes and dudettes,
Came across this on eBay.
I personally like it. (But hopes it comes in other colors)





If I'm not mistaken, this is Volk350Z's ride.

Give it a few more months and this concave wheel look will be in and deep dish will be out.

Not bad. I'm not feeling them with PG or AG. But definitely with BO.

I just saw the offsets. 45 front / 50 rear. Shouldn't it be sticking out??
The Axis website says those are G37S fitment.
Could some wheel guru chime in please.

^^Nope. You got it backwards. Higher offset sticks out less. Seems the best offset for G37 without fitment issues is around +36.

I don't think its Volk350z's car, cos it doesnt have the JP USA side strikes on it...But the wheels are hot....I think it looks fine on the AG, or PG, but agree would be alot better on OB...

When you guys who know about camber adjustments/offsets/spacers/anything rim/suspension orientated start talking I feel like I am in the middle of a austrian party with hot chicks speaking german. I want to know what the hell there saying, but I dont understand!!

Ahh, got it.
Yeah, it's not Volk's car. I remember he had the JP kit.

WTF! the Axis website says it's G37S fitment.

Let me teach those guys about offsets.

"fitment" is a relative term open for interpretation. They lug pattern will match up and the brakes will clear but things like how wide they are and the offset will determine the stance of your ride and how they look on the car.
