I tried to copy the image of the MODA, but it is tiny as hell! I wanted to save a copy of your size for future reference.

Again, as I stated earlier, I must have surveyed 20 or so wheels, and narrowed it down to all but @ 5. Oh another criteria for me, I'm not too crazy about wheels w/ a large surface area. Don't get me wrong, I like several wheels from Lowenhart, and my barber has a 01' S430 with Lorinsor LD-1's and it is extremely clean. But trust me guys when I say that my wheels will no where near pass for stock wheter I'm rolling or parked! And Eppan, They are already mounted up! And come on guys, I know that you know how funky chrome spokes look while they're in motion! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Lorinsor LD-1's....hehe maybe in the future...Cant wait to see pics man. Oh why did you send them to Cali to get dipped...No local chroming houses out there?

Exactamundo! Here in Texas they have a saying, "Don't mess with Texas!" There actually use to be one in Irving TX (suburb of Dallas) but it got shut down. And oh yeah, I got a nice "hooh-up" for sending them to Cali.

How much per wheel....I have the stock 17's and thinking about chroming them. On the other hand I could use that money toward bigger better rims. I've got dronell on my mind 24-7. Theres just something about forged aluminum that gets me droooling

In your case, I would do a search for places that actually stock alot of factory rims. You could do a core exchange and pay the difference which would be very resonable $$$!

Here is a site that caries both factory & aftermarket wheel packages pretty damn cheap!

Victoria's prices seem too good to be true! Are these prices for new rims or used? Bottom line, why so cheap?????
