Can't speak from experience on a MINI, but sold quite a few sets for the dubbers. Those and the Axis Hiro's are the most popular of the Axis line.

I think the 17x7.5 weigh in at ~18lbs.

Retails for $225 ea.

The axis logos are stickers.

The only drawback to the wheel is the fact that dirt/water gets lodged in the spokes. I know it comes with rubber plugs for the holes for cleaning, but everyone loses those. If you can keep them clean, they really look sweet.

Thanks Brian!

You know the retail on 18"?

And why couldn't they just weld the holes? Sounds irritating, and those blue plugs dont look that good to be honest. :(

And maybe it's just me or does the paint look a bit bad quality? It sure doesn't look powdercoated? How do you think it holds?

Ya, I've had customers even get the plugs stuck deep inside the spokes:smile:. If you decide to get them, just toss the plugs.

The 18x7.5 retail for $305.

Check'em out here:

Axis never puts any technical info on their site (offset, weight, etc). I always have to call them for info.

The one good thing I've experienced with Axis is their paint quality. Never had a complaint about chipping, dullness, etc.
