I love Moda Rims. Has anyone had any experience with them. Are they heavy, look crappy in person? I love both the R6 and R8. Lemme know what you guys think.

 

Sorry bout the low res... not too good with PS. Can check em out at tirerack.com too!

 

I was originally looking at those, UNTIL i did some research, they are cast, very heavy, wrong offsets and that was enuf to back off.

 

I want to get them. I know they are heavy, and the offset is in the 40's I think, but I dunno. Those are the cheapest I've found that I really like.

 

they are very heavy but, they are not the wrong offset .....

 

So when you say "heavy" how many pounds are we talking about? That sucks.. those rims look so damn cool. Anyway, does anyone know the weight?

 

When I damaged a wheel in Oct last year, I called Tirerack to check into the R6 in 18x8. I was told that the offest was +38. I'm sorry, but IMO that is wrong when the stock 18x8 Performance/Touring wheels are +30.

 

Didn't TXSTYLE test fit the Moda R6s from his GS on the Z? They seemed to fit fine, but they are certainly heavy, heavy meaning 25+ lbs. for a 19".

 

+38 is way too much for an 8" wheel. +20 would be more like it.

 

I guess I am not understanfing "offset" very well. +38 means 38mm pushed out toward the outside correct? That wheel in the photo not only looks great, but it doesnt seem to be offset in a funny way? Although could be bad camera angle?

 

+38mm=pushed IN towards the car more
+20mm=pushed OUT more towards the wheel well (just an example)

 

Am I wrong... isnt there some difference between positive offset and negative offset? I have never bought aftermarket rims before? Seems to me
+38mm and +20mm would both be going the same way? I am utterly confused.

 

+38 will be in farther than +20. It works reverse from what you may think.
