My Murano's were only $205.00 to my door. Dealer take offs!
Well atleast now I know I'm the 1st with the new style Murano wheels.

I love the way they look, but I gotta give credit where it's due. If it weren't for the guys with the older style wheels I would of never thought of trying the newer style.

Just so you know I got 225/40 on there and they fit perfectly. Most of the other guys run 235/40 I guess is so they have a little more cusion for those curbs.

I was wondering if the hub on the inside of the rim needs a reducer to fit correctly on the smaller axel, or did they just bolt on?

My opinion on the wheel is that they do look nice but the weight of them is too much. you feel like your car is tied down and your gas mileage goes down with everything else.

Actually my mpg hasn't changed a bit. I got 280-320 on a tank of gas with my stock 15's and I still get 280-320 with my murano rims. No change in driving style, if anything its a little more agressive due to the superior grip of the toyos vs the crappy winstons I had with my 15's.

They bolted right on, actually when I was putting them on it almost felt like they were tighter in the hub than my 16's

It is dropped, but I'm going lower soon. Just waiting on my struts so i can swap the whole suspension and get it aligned.

I forget what springs I have on there now but I'm got a new set of Tein S-Techs that will make it sit even lower

I just ran across this thread cause I was looking for "g37" lol.

I've had them on my car for a couple of months but never posted pics. Maybe I was the first?





And yeah also at stock height. I weighed the rims, they're 25 lbs each without tires, 50 lbs with a 225/45/18. Pretty standard for an OEM 18" wheel. Anyway, they're also in the Wheels/Tires Classifieds, seeing if I have any interest.

IMHO, they look kinda truck-ish...like maybe you wish you drove an escalade, but you're stuck in a family sedan. if you think it looks good, then that's all that matters. after all, that's what modding is all about--making it look good TO YOU.

but if you want my opinion...i like 6 spokes, but those are just too much to handle lol. i prefer 7 or 5 spokes, i don't know why.

Looks pretty good imho. If nobody knew that it came off the Murano...I don't think anybody would've noticed. And if you can swing a good deal for these dealer take-offs...it sure beats pretty much most aftermarket wheels out there...price/style...but of course there are those that think that spending more will make a huge difference.

I think the over bidding on Ebay for any of the Max line of wheels made some owners look elsewhere..which isn't such a bad thing. Any improvements over the 4th gen's 16 inchers can only be seen as a positive! I can't stand the rough wheel texture on my stockers....like a dirt trap when it comes to cleanig them
