Thinking about these wheels.

Hey guys, hopefully I can shed some light. Real quick, Axis does not build for porsches, maybe they built a couple of wheels, but that is a lie whoever said

These TSW wheels are great quality, we sell them and all of TSW's recent stuff is really top notch. THe offsets are important, but also you have to take into consideration the design of a wheel. Most mesh wheels the face is flat so it tends to bring the face closer in meaning, little to no clearance for the brake caliper.

These wheels shouldnt have too much of an issue fitting onto the 370z. If you want send us a message and will see what we can work out for you. These are good wheels, just obviously cannot compare them to a 3 piece forged or anything.

I had no ill intent when i said that i thought Axis were better. I had read reviews of TSW's bending. I think it was from some guy who went through 2 sets of thruxtons. i'm sure you know more than i do about wheels.

Anyways, could you recommend a mesh wheel that would fit on the 370z w.sport package which wouldn't require spacers and would be flush to the fenders. I really want something to replace the factory sport rims but i dont feel like dealing with spacers and i dont want anything thinner than what comes in the sport package which i think are 9" wide in front and 10" in the rear.

Thanks!
