MRR

Hi all. Finally getting around to posting my beauty. I love this car! Have MRR GT1's. Stayed with 19's and went a bit wider, but was able to keep the stock tires. Car looks clean and gets a lot of compliments. Getting the Stillen catback and intake tomorrow. I might get another set of wheels..thinking about TSW Donington's. I get bored easily.

Hope you enjoy.

Nice man, good job with the wheels. Looks great. Bad job with STILLEN though, If its not too late i'd return them and get the Borla exhaust. If you do your research on here you will see that the Stillen exhaust rusts like crazy. Borla is more expensive but Much better quality and MUCH better looking IMO. Anyway do whatever you want, but just wanted to give you a heads up in case you didn't know that Stillen def cut corners on this one... If I were you I'd get the borla and wait on the intake until the R2C unit comes out this month.

Hi. Thanks for the advice. I didn't know about the quality considerations, but it's too late. I got it all installed yesterday morning. The good thing is that the Stillen facility is only 3 miles from my office. They are great about standing behind their products. Steve Millen actually took me in his modifed Maxima (the gray with black 20's), the one you see frequently on this site, just so I could hear how the exhaust sounds. That kind of customer service blew me away. As a side note, the sound of the exhaust is great!

Rking21....were you asking me about the cost of my MRR's? If so, total out the door was about $1100 (remember, wheels only). I sold my stock wheels for $500 so net spent about $600. I think it's crazy to go to 22's. Ride quality blows.

Great job on the wheels and I agree 19's are the correct size for this car especially if you want to keep it sporty feeling.

As for Stillen do some research Borla blows them away for this car.

Looks nice... any rubbing issues at all? Also, were you able to use TPMS sensors on your aftermarket 22s?

Thanks

It rubs a tiny if I go to fast on speed bumps. A +40 offset would probably be better but I like how these are flush with the fenders. Yea I used the sensors from the stock wheels. The shop didn't even have to take the tires off the stocks to take out the sensors.

Switched to MRR HR2's

Hi all. So, as I mentioned in an earlier post, get bored easily. Went with MRR again..finally found a wheel that is clean, aggressive and easy to take care of. I'm really happy with them. I stayed with the 19's for ride quality...19x8.5 with 35 offset. My MRR GT1's are now sitting in the garage looking for a new owner. hint.

What do you think? Thanks! http://gallery.me.com/hayden8s#10004...or=black&sel=0

That GT1's I really dont like bc they are more luxury, but those mmr HR2's OMG those are damn sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I didnt have 19 inch sport wheels I would 100% buy those for my car.

I'm trying hard to find a set of TE37's on a 7th gen in 19" if anyone can help. I'm planning on getting a set but I just can't find any photos to help me decide for sure.

^^ I'm looking at getting Varrstoen ES 2.2.2's but figured the TE37 might be easier to find.

Gotta admit that's ORIGINAL. He has to take plenty trophies home at car shows and in the end that maybe what its all about. I see this Jeep around the BX with some 26" or better and although its not my taste its a WOW each time.
