18" Murano Wheels

I am looking at picking up a set of 18" Murano wheels off a 2003. I am not allowed to use the search function, so I am asking.

Will I run into any fitment issues? What size rubber should I go with? And will a 2" drop with Tein S Techs and Tokico Illuminas cause any major problems?

If anyone has pics of their Max with Murano's on it, feel free to post them up.

Thanks,
sleespeed

I am looking at the 18" Nissa Murano 5 spokes, they are hella cheap on Ebay. I am going to powder coat them a gunmetal color.

I have my Muranos in hand and am waiting for the rubber to arrive. I'm putting 235/40/28 Toyo Proxes 4 on the rims. Several guys have these on their Maxes with no issues. Supposedly a straight bolt on and ...BAM. In the members lists there are some who have pix posted like Digital Texan. I'll post as soon as mine are mounted. GL.

Im looking at a set locally for $750. The wheels are new, with the factory tires. I got a hookup at the dealer, and these are off a new Murano. They have the OE 225/40-18 tires.

What if I wanna go lower? What is the lowest drop I can safely do on this setup? Do the sprints really cause driveshaft problems?

Thanks!!!!!
