Does anyone here have these on their cars. I was debating on getting the MOTEGI MR-5 or the MODA R6 in 18's. Any options and pics would be great. By the way I have a 2000 silver GTS with the TRD body kit if that make any difference.

Please advice.

I purchased and installed my Moda r6's in early summer 2001. I must say that I get tons of looks and compliments with them. The only problem I have experienced is that I dented them slightly on the highway where they were doing some construction on a bridge. It is pretty hard to explain to other drivers behind you why you want to slow down to 5mph on the highway to avoid denting your rims...........:burnout:

I also made some other mods closeup in pic2. Clear turn sig [ APC ] and headlight covers [ TRD ]

damn..they look 1000% better than I thought they would..

1- how much did you get them for?
2-is your car dropped?
3-where did you get them?

Looks awesome

Peace

Thanks

1. Got them in early 2001 with Yok. parada tires shipped, mounted etc for @1,450... I will look for the receipt. I think you can get them 200 less now for the same setup but I haven't quoted it out. The tires have come down in price. The setup was purchased through a local dealer.......but ultimately came through Tire Rack on his account.

2. Car not dropped. Not sure if I am going to do that or not at this point.

Eventhough it really looks great and I am happy with them, I would put 17's on and lower the car. I think that it might look even better.
