AXIOM 3PC FLY M1 w/ CF Lips

Here are a few pics of my new wheels I got from Peter @ AGCSD.

Thanks Peter!

The wheels are AXIOM Light Concave (Conical) FLY M1 (8 spoke mesh design) 3 piece forged wheels with Carbon Fiber Reverse (flat) Lips. The finish is Brushed w/Tinted Clear Centre | Gloss Black Barrels | Carbon Fiber Lip.

Fronts: 19x8.5 ET ~ +44
Rears: 19x10.0 ET ~ +53

Weight: Fronts: ~ 23 lbs
Rears: ~ 24 lbs

(I was not provided with ET or Weight so I had to calculate these values and thus they are approximate but I am sure very close).

I bought a wheel and tire package and the tires are:

Front: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 245/35 R19
Rear: Michelin Pilot Super Sport 275/30 R19

I am stoked to say the least, so with no further ado - Pics

Awesome pics Mort.. I'm glad to see the fitment is flush. The Michelin looks so meaty, which is a good thing! So the big question.. Any rub over big dips?

Looks good, but need bigger pics! I have wheels coming in any day now that's about those size/offsets, but i went with 235/265 just in case of rubbing issues, and a very mild stretch never hurt anyone haha.

Thanks Meng. I'll let you know if they rub when I get a chance to put them through their paces. I still haven't had my car out yet.

Thanks, looking forward to seeing your wheels. The 275 already look a little stretched to me. The 245 are much more square shoulder looking on the front.

Finally had my car out on Friday...LOL, bout time eh!

No rubbing that I noticed, so far so good. Keeping my fingers crossed. Some of the rough pavement around is brutal (not pot holes exactly but roughly patched broken up asphalt) and I got a good thump or two not being able to tell how rough the patch would really be. Hope my wheels are as strong as I was told they are.

It sure was nice getting the car on the road.

Yeah, by looking at your pics I didnt think you would rub. Looks like you got the perfect fitment! Good job bro & enjoy.

P.S Stay far from the curbs, the CF lips are too sick to get scratches... lol

Mort, the wheels look a lot better on your car then on the lighter color C. Glad you like them. They are a really unique design. It seems that lately not many are trying new things so props on going with something original

Yes they are close to perfect fitment and I thank Peter and Axiom for that. Just a mm or two either way would be too much and they would rub. I think the front could be a little more aggressive but they are fine for now.

I will stay away from the curbs and it would be a shame to scratch them up or worse...Knock on wood...LOL

Peter, I like the wheels a lot. I even sneak out for a peak now and then. Thanks for doing a bang up job on them!
