Thoughts on This Wheel

[AustinTexMan]

Hey Gang,

Looking for some feedback on this wheel. My coupe is winter frost,looking to go with either 19 or 20 in wheels.

I really dig it.....that's actually close to what I was thinking about for mine (when it comes in!)

[SHIFT_2.5S]

Does it come in black or gunmetal? Looks good, just not digging the chrome.

It kind of looks like the Lexus IS300 wheel. I really don't dig the chrome or those rivet thingys on the wheels though. It looks too early 2000-ish in my opinion. Of course it's just my opinion.

I beleive Moda is made by BBS - if so then it is a quality wheel. Wheel looks nice - I don't like the fact that is has no lips - but that is just me.

Yup, Moda is the entry line for BBS. They are good quality wheels, but too Lexus plus rivet looking, no?

Always liked the 5 spoke look, classic, not tacky, and no bling, just pure sport

Now this is what you classy. A nice set of lightweight forged Volk TE37's. This wheel is pure class and sport!!

Nice! does it come in gunmetal with a polish lip?

[bembol]

Sorry, not feeling it.

I can't stand Chrome, especially Rivets.

I agree not a big chrome fan but I always like the 5 spoke look...actually I like the Lexus wheel the best.

[chow]

yep, gunna go for the te37's in 18's. I want practical wheels so when i track the car i can actually use em.

Traditional 5 spoke design should always look good, some styles may look better for a while, but the 5 spoke design has been "good" for years.

Specifically, I'm not a fan of chrome, nor do I care for "fake rivets".

What kind of size/offset are the OEM wheels?

[SHIFT_COUPE]

Not a fan of chrome and especially rivets. I love the Volks. Pretty penny though

The SE models are 17x7.5" with a +45 offset.

Chow, you're getting the TE37's?? Care to trade wheels with a fellow Altima owner Those Volk's rock!! I'm considering running those in a polished silver. I love VOLK/RAY'S ENGINEERING wheels!! Every single design they make looks classy and aggressive at the same time. Not to mention how strong and lightweight their wheels are.

Oh yeah, if anyone is interested in the Nismo 18x8.5", I know a guy locally selling them. They are a very nice 5 spoke design, almost the same as the TE37's, and are in almost new condition with new tires. Unfortunately, I'm in Hawaii so the shipping would probably be outrageous with the tires mounted. He's not selling the wheels seperately, just as a package.

Hey generic, Do you know if 18x8, 5x144.3, +35 offset wheel would fit on the A/C? with a +35 offset, would that bring the wheel right out to the wheelwell? you know, flush with it?

Also, can you get pics of those Nismo wheels you mentioned as well as the specifics. What zip would they be coming from? Thanks man!

Yeah, a 5x114.3 with a +35 should have you flush with the lip. I'm running 18x8 +45 and added an 8mm spacer to get me right out there.

Here's the link to the Nismo's but I don't think you'd want to pay for shipping from Hawaii. Not bad if there were no tires, but it'll cost you a grip with tires. Unfortunately, he's not selling seperate. My zip is 96706 and he lives about 10 minutes from me so I'm assuming it would probably be the same. By the way, the wheels are in like new condition with pretty meaty tires. They look much better in person; the pics do them no justice. If you can find a set locally, I'd jump on them.
