Has anyone ever seen these wheels?

They are made by Moda. I've never heard of this company and my Google search hasn't come up with much results. They look cool but I wanted to know the quality and weight of them. Tirerack seems to be the only ones who carry them. I'll probably give them a call and ask about them.

personally, i don't like the looks of those wheels. i think you can get much better for the same amount of dough.

Never seen them on a car -- so would be unique. Not what I would pick, but not bad. I think they would look better on a lighter colored car than a darker one.
Looks like they don't come in a staggered sizes if that matters to you. They also don't list the weight, which usually means they are heavy ( I think Moda's tend to be on the heavy side in general).
Good luck.

Wow, no one seems to like those wheels, even my family members and close freinds...lol! How about these?

Okay here is my problem. I can't stand my stock wheels, I have the 16" 134 wheels. Originally, I wanted to go for the 166, but the wheels plus tires will all come out to about $3000
For me it's not easy to spend that kind of money on wheels and tires. So I was thinking of a less expensive alternative, and Tirerack seemed to have a couple that cought my eye. I like wheels that are less busy, (with the exception of the 166) and I cannot stand chrome.
So if anyone has better suggestions please let me know, I value anyone's opinion. Feel free to PM me as well.
I have an orient blue 2004 525i btw.

asa's are a good brand. ive seen an e60 before rolling in anaheim with jh8s. those jh9s look pretty nice. i noticed you're into the 5-spoke star design. my oem 128's could be an option or maybe the 167's. other options could possibly be tsw's, mayas, at's, vellanos, and asanti's too. ah i cant think of any more right now..

I think you need to see a set on a car before you make a decision. Wheels are tricky, you may like them but then when there on a car its like "wtf what happpend here, 2grand for this?"
