How long did you guys wait for HREs?
The Axis PHIN rims I ordered is causing a lot of troubles.. I did not know I HAD TO use spacers in the rear.. even if I use 10mm spacers, I would still have tire rubbing problem in the rear with c55s' rolled fenders. Is it just the c55s that don't fit Axis wheels??? I don't know how FrankW did it but the fact that I waited so long to get new rims starting from LM6s, I regret so much that I did not begin with HREs in the first place.. I've already waisted too much of my $$$ and time ordering spacers, Axis wheels, canceling LM6, and disputing charges on LM6.. ect 
SO! I finally ordered HRE 841R in black with confidence. How long did you guys wait for them? They said 5 weeks to me but I know it takes little longer. And, if anyone's interested in Axis PHIN wheels, I'll sell them for a good price.

We actually have the rims hand delivered by a stripper for no extra charge, however, if you want her to blow u, that is an additional $150. :p
