MOMO Heritage 6

[2015WhiteGTI]

OMG I'm in love! What a fantastic design. Pricing starts at $450/wheel. Seems like they're semi-custom as you order your color offset and bolt pattern. I tried to upload them in the order of the colors listed below. Hopefully it worked.

Here's the write-up from MOMO:
Bringing MOMO’s past into the present, the MOMO Heritage 6 wheel features a modernized classic six-spoke design that is reminiscent of MOMO’s first light alloy wheels that revolutionized the industry in the 1970’s. Today’s MOMO six-spoke wheel is made using revolutionary rotary forged flow forming technology, a manufacturing process that makes wheels both light and strong.

MOMO has partnered with the engineering team responsible for developing and pioneering a unique rotary forged process over 11 years ago known as dual-way flow forming and who continues to revolutionize flow forming technology today. Through a unique combination of heat, pressure and rotation, the dual-way flow forming process creates a rim area with similar strength and impact ratings to forged wheels with a 15% weight reduction over alloy wheels.

Available in 17″ and 18″ diameters, the Heritage 6 is custom made to order. Choose your 5 lug bolt pattern, offset, backspace and any of MOMO’s nine custom color options.

Colors:
Gloss Black
Gloss Gunmetal
Gloss Red
Gloss White
Matte Black
Matte Bronze
Matte Gold
Matte Gunmetal
Metallic Silver

450 a wheel? Uh, no thanks.

 

[2015WhiteGTI]

If I didn't have my Volks, I'd be first in line for these.

Gorgeous, but very spendy. I'll keep my Neuspeed 5 spokers.

I too share your love of this wheel, but we are in the minority. I posted the other day and didn't get much enthusiasm.

UGH! For me, if I really like something, I'm getting it no matter what.
I spent more than this on my Volk's getting them refinished (I bought them used), but it was my dream wheel and I wanted them.
Like I said, if I didn't have my Volks, I would be all over these.

I spent over $3K on wheels for my wife's BMW X3. 19x8.5 Advan AVS Model T5 - that weigh 17lbs. per corner less than the stock 17x8 (wheel and tire combo). I love them and the wife loves them too.

Some people just can't get past the cost. Others will spend over $1K per wheel without even thinking. It's just what's important to you and that's that.

I'd love to know the weight of the 18x8 or 18x8.5. if anyone calls and finds out, let me know.

What is weight of a 18x8. Curious.
Get what you like.

For a similar manufacturing process and at 18.6lbs OZ Leggera's are a good option but different look. Curious how weight compares.
Post pics once on car. Suggest 235/40R18's. Better size for ride.
