Moto metal Quality is lacking IMO. I have a set of 954's and they started flaking off just after the first year and never got ran in salt. Now they'll be my work truck rims:o:

I like the 951's best IMO but the center caps on the moto metals will wear relatively quickly. Ever thought about M/T Classic Lock II's? Chrome center cap, looks close to the style of wheel you are looking for.

Yea those MT's I think alittle too old school for me. Y do the center caps go quickly? Mine go fast too but thats cause the damn things keep falling off :D

That is the #2 reason why I would get them. No one else has them. The #1 reason is they look awesome!! Out of curiosity, why 16's and not 17's or larger? Jerry.

Already have 16" tires. Plus those damn things are expensive...can get rims cheaper than the tires...lol. I like how the sidewalls look on 16" compared to say 20's. If its not lifted I want sidewall or I think it looks out of place with some cookie cutter tires.
