Check tirerack they usually have better prices and they will determine size for you.

Discountedwheelwarehouse(DWW) is actually usually cheaper than the tirerack and they have a much larger selection. I would contact them directly, they are very knowledgable.

DWW is here in Orange County and I went in there when I was buying my wheels a few years back. One of the owners had a GX with the wheels that I have now, seeing them on the car helped solidify my descision.

And I think that wheel would look pretty good on the GX.

Thanks cmarshack. Did your overall vehicle height raise. My garage is really low. Already had to cut some of the header to fit in.

I agree about selection but in my opinion Tire rack have better prices. I got Moda 22 inch forged for $100 per wheels ( now they discotinued ) and I got Kumho tires which is not the best but I paid only $164 per tire 22 inch size.

I have never seen a decent wheel for $100 bucks each. I would not trust a wheel that cheap.

Moda are very nice and strong wheels. 99% of wheels are made in Cina anyways. Sometimes tirerack has amazing discounts, on discontinued wheels. Moda are normally 200-300$ price range. Thats why I bought 6 wheels just in case.

You can get quality wheels at a low price. It is all about timing. About 5 years ago I bought a set (4) of OZ Mitos from Tirerack for $50/wheel. That style was being discontinued. OZ makes very good quality wheels.
