    Re: More Euro wheel knockoffs!

    I don't think most axis styles are ripoffs.

      ^ But the Jazz are? That kinda a contradiction isn't it?

      What about the Monet wheels Bob? Are they from the same core company? Because they look identical...

      I think most people get the feeling they are knock off because of the price..I personally could care less. Buy a wheel if you like it, and if it has a better price so be it! (Unless quality is down..) but these look great!

      My first wheels were Flix Arctic from Edge Racing.. I loved how they looked, but even more so loved the price!! (18x8.5 w/ rubber for 2k! ->taxes incl.) They were cheaper wheels, but I dont think the quality was lesser then any other wheel.. You dont have to spend $900 per wheel to get a decent set!

        Fliks are nice, I dunno why people hate on them.

        Jaz wheels are nice too, but Axis seemed to have a little more brand image.

            ^ But still look as though they are knock off designs... but do look good!

                this knockoff stuff is funny, a guy at work is always asking about wheels for his 5 series, so I showed him HRE's (too expensive) and some BBS. He said "I don't want any of those, those are all (HRE's, BBS, Iforged) knockoffs of BMW Wheels!"

                I almost fell off my chair......true story.

                    New Age = RH ?
                    Gothic = Axis Milano?
                    Portrait = M series wheel replica?

                    Some of the wheels look original though, the Impressionism is hot, not sure if its like any other famous wheel.

                        Hence the lower price. The owner of Jaz being one of the "ex" owners of Axis, wants to get a piece back of the pie he helped create, so if you have not as recognised of a name, then you have to sell a bit more on price...

                          For sure, gotta admire both Axis and Jaz for their pricing, they sell an above average looking wheel at a below average price.
