MOMO Sports are my absolute favorite... but unfortunately.... they dont make them in 19".

There is no sense in spending all sorts of dough on a 18" wheel. Even if I love the design.

Ive seen em on a TL and they look teeny.

Hopefully they will make them in 19" one day.

Anyone with Zenetti wheels know if they make plain chrome center caps? Or any caps without coloring.

Ogolden, Dacat... are either of yours colored?

JRock, do you have the specs and price for that MOMO wheel?

soopa

For the MOMO Sports in Silver finish from Super Buy Tire...
17x8 $339
17x8.5 $359
18x7.5 $369
18x8.5 $479
18x10 $599

They come in two slightly differnet designs to accomodate different offsets.

The WILL fit our cars in 18x7.5... but I havent seen a CL/TL with any higher of a width with those wheels.

I would buy them in a SECOND if they came in 19"... but 18 just aint worth how much they cost.

Well considering if you get 19s you DEFINITELY can't do any suspension mods (besides maybe sways), I would think 18s would be fine.

I thought this looks TIGHT:

{insert that one pic of the TL with the Momos that I can't find right now}

No, I've been trying to figure that info out for the past month.

Thats not true at all... like Ive said a BILLION times... the diameter of the wheel doesnt matter as long as you have a thinner sidewall on your tire.

Our wheel/tire diamater has plenty of room for 19's WITH enough tire to give a decent ride.

Several members already have 19's with springs/shocks... including the most dramatic representation by SLAMMEDCL.

I used to think 18 was enough too... till I saw many TL's/CL's with 18's in Person... they look tiny... and the tires still look to fat... the tires still bow inward at the lip of the wheel... i hate that.

No reason to pay $2k and up for another inch of wheel.

I allready checked into the Momo Sports. The offest is 38 and will not fit unless the fender is modified.

soopa:

I meant the superbuytires link because it didn't work for me. I know about momo.it - that's where I got the pic from.


And you can't seriously tell me his don't rub. I can't believe he can even get full travel of the steering wheel without rubbing.

I mean come on now. How can you say 18s look "tiny"?! 17s look "somewhat small", 16s would look "tiny". 18s look "good", 19s look "great".

You are wrong.

There are two TL's with MOMO Sports on them already.

MOMO makes two different designs of the Sport wheel to accomodate most offset needs... LOOK... these are the wheels with the +38 offset... see how the bolt holes are set further back then the ones in the picture JRock posted above?


JRock: http://www.superbuytires.com
18's in any wheel with a lip look SMALL... theres two much tire remaining on the wheel. The reason our 17's look big is because our wheels have no lip... the spoke goes all the way to the tire.

Anyway... it depends what you want in a wheel... i want wheels to pimp em out... id go 20" if I could. 19s are really the biggest you can acceptably go on this car... and you might as well go big. Everybodys got 18's... whoodie doo.

hey soopa, do you have any idea what tires run for 19"s? And plus if you go w/ 19's do you know how often you will be sending those rims to get fixed? i have 2 buddies w/ 19's one on a civic and one on a accord. One has racing harts the other has blitz's. Those things bend all the time and they are good ass wheels. I'm assuming the companies w/ less expensive wheels are bending even more because the process they use to make them and the material they use isn't as strong. But if you want to go pimp go for it. just giving my 4.20$

I noticed sites selling Momo Sports in silver or chrome - what's the finish that's kinda white in color? Why don't any sites sell that?

I like that white one (for my Aegean blue car).


I never realized how expensive RH C5s are.

Hey Scott, you said those wheels were ugly when I told you that I was going to get them. Why the sudden change of mind? My friends gonna hook me up with those, in silver though, I don't like the chromes. The wheels are pretty expensive, run about 8 bills per rim retail.

I like the momo's. What is the part number for that, in silver (not chrome), in 18 x 7.5, with the correct offset?
(I haven't bought custom rims in awhile)

What size tires would we use to keep the diameter the same as stock to make vsa happy?

I could keep my stock rims/miches for the winter, as they were good enough.

Yez... I know how much tires cost in 19 thank you

And yes... some companies wheels bend more then others. This is why i prolly wont go with Zenetti.

But Im gonna go 19... no point in 18... hardly diff from stock.

I would kill for those MOMOs in 19. But now it seems everybody wants those anyway... so i gotta be different. heh

Oh, and I too remember you saying those wheels were ugly when i first posted the BR-5 pics when they came out. hmmm

They only make the Sports in Silver (like our stock wheels) or in MO-Brite (chrome)

You could get them powder coated white if you wanted too.

they look sweet, would i get them no, you and i are going for a different look then these guys, they are going for flash (similiar to a 51 merc all done up w/ bright paing and chrome wheels), we are going for that clean so cal street look (clean body, nice chopped top, california suede paint and a nice set of white walls) , and you know what i'm talking about.....just put it in modern day terms. They are beauties but i wouldn't ride them on the CL

Okay I got what you mean. I still like the wheels but I'm not sure if I can dig they way they would look on the "S". Your right about the look we are after. We are more into the race tuner look vs. the pimp daddy chrome cruiser look.

The wheels did look pretty nice on my car, but not the look that i'm after.
