Default 18" Moda R4 rims for my '02 S6 Avant

I've not had any experience with Moda wheels, I just like the look. Can anyone tell me about the quality/durability of these rims. i.e. Will the finish hold up? Will they stay round? How heavy are they?
Also, any recommendations on high performance, summer only tires to fit these rims?

Default Re: 18" Moda R4 - good stuff!

<center><img src="http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/images/moda/swap/moda_r4_ci3_l.jpg"></center><p>Moda is our own brand. They are produced in Italy for us by Fondmetal. TUV approved- good build quality like everything we offer.

There is a lot of forum threads on them:

Good stuff. I have sold a few sets on 1st gen a4- great look. Let me know should you need them, or call me with any questions!<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/DisplayWheel.jsp?wheelMake=moda&wheelModel=R4&whee lFinish=Silver+Painted">Moda R4</a></li></ul>

Default Eddie@Tirerack - tell me more...

Tried to call, left message, but I got no reply. A couple of the threads you directed me to criticized these rims as too shiny. How does "shiny" compair to say...the "wine glass" rims on my 2000 A6. I suppose since Moda's your house brand, there's no where I could actually see them here in Denver, CO. The BBS CH rims in 18x8.5 are interesting too, but not as much so. Can I fit Audi center caps on either of these? ...also I asked about tires? These are going on a new Atlas Grey S6 Avant that's still being built, and isn't to arrive this side of the ocean until April, so I have a little time to shop (and rap my finger impatiently on my desk).
