Hmm, soft and bend easily... yeah. Likely want to avoid them then! And heavy is terrible as well...

These aren't for me, by the way. I was hoping to get my dad rolling on 18's in spring! Tight x-mas present for him... but yeah... I think I'd be passing if they bend easily... and are heavy.

Any other experience with them guys?

And yeah, I love my iforged... I think my next set of wheels will be LM's... nothing else is worth the hassle of upgrading, in my opinion. But yeah, the LM's are sex.

I'm in Canada... lets say 1500 with tires. 1300 USD~

Doesn't have to be new. I was thinking I might get these axis supermesh 18x8, with nearly new toyo proxes 4's... for like 1200~ CDN. (he's asking 1500 obo). I think they are a great looking wheel... but I don't want a heavy wheel for him. Definatley not.

I saw a sick set of thick 5-spoke axis wheels on an A6, I say go for it, those wheels you put up are hot.

Yeah, but I don't care if they look nice... if at the same time they are heavy, and weak.

I have no question of whether or not I like the style... I love how they look (AXIS badge aside...)

But I have something against heavy wheels.

I dunno, definately don't want anything over 25 lbs a wheel. I'd like a 22 23 lb wheel.
