i had the moda wheels on my is300, i know they look stock, but i like to keep it clean and classy, im not going to throw away 4k+ on hre,volk,iforged,etc(was looking at the ronjon inspire wheels, but to me they are way to beefy for our cars and they look like my old wheels off my ford harley truck, but again to each his own, not to mention thats the wheels 40%+ of you all have)), i just cant spend that money on a set of wheels. also i dont want chrome, and definatly do not want gold/bronze wheels on my white car, some may like it, but thats not for me, i really dont know why i posted b/c like what i tell others do what you want its your car you have to drive and look at it, so dont worry with others opions. so i guess ill go with my gut here

I don't personally like either wheel, but if I had to choose, I'd get the Moda's.

It is up to you...and if I really did have to pick one I would go with #2 all silver like stated above...I know you shouldn't care about what other people think about your ride...but me personally, I wouldn't want negative comments about my car's wheels everytime someone saw it. I know not everyone is the same...but when most people are saying bad things about your ride...It doesn't matter who you are, it will put you down eventaully. Even if you think there the best looking wheels out there for your car.

I have a set of FLAT BLACK devotions being made for my NHB 05 TL...and even though some of us members have these wheels...I'm pretty sure you will never see a set of devotions and if you ever do you'll probably never see them more than that one time....where ever you live....I live in a big city and I've never seen these wheels around...and I look for them!!! in my line of work I also travel alot to major cities and not so major cities and I haven't come across a set of devotions. They are pricy but they are made exclusively for our cars...how more custom can that be!!! sorry for the miss spells im in a hurry!!! The wheels are being discontinued as well!!!

I have 18" chrome Zenetti Dueces on my '04 5AT NBP. I've gotten many compliments on their appearance. I don't care for the black/machined look, though. I'd choose silver for WDP.

Hey knighj1, with a good tint and either painted black calipers with upgraded rotors or a bbk, I really think the deuces would look damn good on your car. The deuces will give you more of a euro look with the lip and rivets which brings both aggressiveness and a sophisticated look to your whip IMO.

Plus at night and at day (sometimes), from far away, the rims look like 5 star ten-spokes (like the SSR's or devotions, etc) because of the 2 sets of colors you get as a result of the other 10 spokes being powdercoated. So in essence, you'll have that 5 star moda look, but with the addition of a nice shiny lip and rivets.

hey knighj1, which did you end up getting? Judging from your other threads (ingalls, etc) it sounds like you made a choice. Good luck either way, I'm sure it'll look good.
