Two months ago I spoke to a tireshop and they quoted me around 27lb. But he could be wrong as he does not carry Axis wheels at his shop. Try calling Axis and they should be able to tell you. I am curious how much they weight too??

Yeah Volks are best of both worlds in terms of lightweight wheel and killer styling. BUt the only draw back is they are dam expensive rims. I guess you get what you pay for!!

I understand that Jaz wheel is a spin off of Axis, and the wheels are made from the same mold.

It seems like there was a break up at Axis, and some guys left and they got the right to some of the wheels. I have heard that Axis is dropping the Milano wheel soon.

Why would they drop the Milano's when the rim looks one of the nicer ones. So I would assume the Milano's will go cheaper because there will be no replacement if something happens to it. That sucks!!

The Jaz wheel is the same as the Milano, would you continue to make something that someone else makes, and sells $100 cheaper?

Where are you seeing them for $289 a wheel?

I am working with Spyeng.com to get a set, they are on back order.

I believe you can call Axis directly to purchase their wheels as well.

I heard today, that Axis is going to the Milano and Jaz the Trinity both the same wheel, Jaz will have the 45 offset, Axis the 40 offset.

Would sure love to hear about what the real story is on this.

I thought you said the JAZ wheels are $100bucks cheaper per wheel so I just did the math. If not, how much are they selling it for??? I know places are selling the Axis Milano's for $340/wheel 19's. So I would assume the look alike JAZ would be close to high 200's??? Can u find out exactly how much they are selling it for??? Thanks!!!

I'd also like to know the deal on the Jaz wheels. I love the Milano, but can't swing $2200 for a wheel and tire package right now.

If I can stay under 2k for wheels and tires mounted and balanced, I'll sell my 04 A-spec wheels that I just got and get those...

Jaz's site lists the Trinity for $335 each, 19X8.5...given the discount many places give on Axis wheels, you might be able to get that down to $300 each.
