Quality of Jaz wheels?

I know they are popular because they look like the Axis Milano Plus. But does anyone know or heard of anything about the quality of these wheels? I've seen them many times on here so I would like to know if anyone have had any problems with theirs, or know anything that might help me here.

This guy is offering me his last set of 19" Jaz Trinity 35offset for a hell of a steal.

I can't tell you the quality, but the Jazz Trinity is beautiful !!! Is your car an automatic ?

I don't think they will fit with Brembo brakes. If you get them, see if you can get 5 wheels. An extra is a great idea. If they are discontinued and you damage one beyond repair you have an extra. Otherwise your screwed big time.

How much and where can you get them ??? Just curious, I have Brembo's, so they aren't an option for me.

Jaz is a company started by some of the guys who started Axis, which is why the Trinity looks like the Milano...it's the same wheel. One or two people here have Jaz wheels, but I don't know if they're around much any more. They seemed pleased with them, though. Given that it's some of the principles from Axis, I would assume (but you know what they say about assuming) that the quality is similar to Axis.

Also, you asked initially at 10:00 at night and again at 4:00 am...how many people do you think are on here at those times? You need to be more realistic and give people a chance to answer your questions (which means they have to be here, which, for the most part, is during the day).

Mine is an AT. I can get them for a thousand plus shipping. He should have the shipping price for me today when I call him. So yeah, the low price is great, but i have a feeling finding a replacement wheel might be hard thereafter so its a double edged blade. Great idea, Im going to ask him for 5 wheels.

I use to have the Jaz Trinity wheels and I had no problems at all. They are really nice wheels and had a whole bunch of compliments for them. They weigh in about 25lbs for 19s which is close to our OEM 17's. When I received the wheel, it came in with the Axis Milano box so yes they are the same identical wheel but with a Jaz wheel cap vs an Axis wheel cap. Hope that helps!!

I just did some searching and phone calling. I talked to Axis and they said the Milano is discontinued and no more in stock. I asked if it the same wheel as the Jazz Trinity and he said NO. I called a couple other places and they didn't have any in stock. But they retailed for $380 each.
