Avant Garde or Verde Axis for my F31

Hey guys

I am getting my F31 in the coming weeks and trying to decide on wheels. These are the two I am looking at. The Avant wheels are $500 more. Not sure if it makes sense to pay the difference.

Any help or advice on the wheels would be great. If anyone has the wheels, how do they hold up? Crack, bend?

Avant Garde


Verde Axis

I agree with you Avant Garde are better and they looks much better with your car. Actually they are compatible with these models.

I have the verde axis bronze on my f32 and get nothing but complaments. I had them for about 3 months now no problems. Only thing I didn't like is that the wheel stem was on the inside so depending on the offset the cap might hit with the m breakes.

Personally, I like the Axis better. The AG look is kind of dated, too similar to many of the F30 wheels and BBS.

Thanks, I was thinking the same thing. I think I will save the $500 and use it on tint or something along those lines

How about AG m580:
The spokes are flushed with the outer rim at the edges, I feel this is cleaner than the verde.

I would go with the lighter option if the difference were a couple of hundred dollars. Both are inexpensive rims.

Axis.

I love Verde wheels, but I do sometime find the valve placement very disputable.
