Hey i previously posted a thread asking if motegi rims would fit my car, now im questioning how good a company they are. If anyone has motegi rims, specifically the Mr8's or knows anything baout them could they please post, tahnx alot.

 

pep boys sells sony and apc, which most of u guys have in or on ur car, so i need better info then that

 

well i think they look cool, as long as u get the aluminum or charcoal colored ones
the chrome look pathetic

 

Here's the info you're looking for from a Motegi distributor, me.

If you see the same style wheel in a different manufacturer, it's the same mold. IMHO. Therfore, they are all knock-offs and it's nothing special.

Some have better centercaps or minor aesthetic differences to slightly differentiate, but they're all the same. Some just sell for a shitload more than others.

The one piece wheels are not neccessarily lightweight. I'd have to check that particular style, but I have not run into one that made me go, holy ****, like I did when holding the Rota Subzero and Volk Racing wheels.

However, if weight is not a concern and they fit your budget, then go for it. I'll check my fitment guide, but assuming you have a protege5 the chances may be slim.

What you are looking for is a 7" width with a +44 or higher. In a 7.5" width you'll require a +48mm offset. These are the safe limitations and will not require any mods to your vehicles body or suspension.

See ya, Rishie

I own a Protege5 as well and have test fit all these and made all the fatal mistakes so you won't have too. hehe.
