These look hot and I don't believe spacers are required.

Good luck...Axis Gravity's are discontinued. They may be listed on eBay, but then the vendor will tell you it was a mistake listing and they can't get them Trust me, I've been looking everywhere. Sounds like the OP doesn't want to space it anyways, so moot point.

Both you and jguerra have wheels from stillhere153... I contacted Axis direct and they confirmed that the Grav's are discontinued. Direct quote from Axis rep was: "We came out with the Halo and it killed the Gravity business since it is so close in design." So keep them wheels pretty boys....no bendage or curbage FTW

I'm in a holding pattern for now....my luck lately has been ALL BAD Just got my CF Front Lip Spoiler delivered today...BROKE IN HALF courtesy of UPS! Trying to contact the guy I bought it from to see what we can do...I'm not sure he insured it which is just crazy for a $350 piece that is pretty fragile For the record, the packaging was kind of flimsy but had FRAGILE stickers all over it...I'm so sick of this shit!

I know man...I don't know WTF is going on with shipping carriers these days? They just don't seem to give a shit about taking care of the freight? Everytime I see a USPS commercial on the tube, I automatically go into "pizzed off" mode here's some pics of the lip...was really looking forward to getting it installed for this Sunday's AZ Meet I just got confirmation from the seller that it was insured...thankfully.





Apologies for highjacking the OP's post...I'm out.

Funny thing USPS is better than all of them.... Unless you are sending a letter.. then FeDex is the way to go.

They all abuse pacakges... so its not the couriers fault.. is the person who packs them.

Carriers assume responsibility when they accept the freight!

Yea...the wheels weren't packaged that well from the manufacturer but how would you know that unless you opened up every box? They were still sealed with the plastic banding on the boxes so you wouldn't think that inspection was necessary? Besides the 1 that got damaged, the shippers packaging doesn't explain the missing wheel...that's just plain negligence on USPS. It's true that all carriers damage freight but it's mostly due to laziness and lack of concern for other peoples property...12 years in the freight business taught me that. I do hold the carrier accountable....they were paid good money (over $50 per box) to deliver the freight in a timely fashion, undamaged....PERIOD! It's also the carriers responsiblity to refuse freight that is improperly packaged so they don't assume liability...if they accept it, they approve the packaging, they assume responsibility to safeguard the contents...that's how it works. Certainly can't blame stillhere153 for the USPS' incompetence. My other set of wheels will be here tomorrow...and they are packaged to survive a nuclear blast.....thanks to a little packaging coaching between myself and my brother who shipped them.
