Default Teaser Pics - 19" Moda R6's On Car

Got my new wheels and tires today. I wanted to go staggered, but the Moda R6 has been one of my favorite wheels for years just for its clean design. Plus I got a very nice deal on the package. It is nasty weather so I just snapped a few shots with my camera phone. High quality will follow this weekend when the weather improves. I also have a Supra TT suspension in the trunk to solve the wheel gap which will probably go on this weekend as well.

Wheels: 19x9 Moda R6
Tires: Bridgestone Pole Position SO-3's 245x35x19

looks great! I have my 19" Moda R6 sitting in the garage waiting for some tires and suspension pieces. With the stock suspension the gap doesn't look too bad.

Have you noticed any performance differences with the heavier wheels? Can't wait to slap mine on

Be careful. They bend easily!

Thanks for the heads up. One good thing about Tennessee is there are very few pot-holes. Now let me knock on some wood before I leave work and blast a huge hole in the road. Snapped a couple of other pics yesterday that are a tad better quality.

Excellent choice for wheels!

I always thought these were good looking wheels too. Looks killer on the black SC.

Wheels look great!

I have had the 18" R6's on my car for almost 2 years and yes like clint said they bend easy. So watch for potholes mine were less than 2 weeks old and I hit a pot hole at night and had to replace 2 of them. I wanted 19" for the looks but the roads in Dallas suck for the most part so I went with a little more sidewall.
