New Wheels - your thoughts?
Well I've had my new rims on for a couple weeks now and have posted in the members rides section. The reason I am also posting here is because there has been a LOT of controversy regarding the.....

.....

MURANO RIMS!!!

Well I put them on with 235/40's and they compliment my drop very nicely. I am with you guys and did NOT like them on the previous pictures posted, including the black 5th gen and the other 4th gens. (Although I agree that they look better on the 4th gens than the black 5th gen)

Here are my pictures on a STERLING MIST, and I think they look really good.

(56k, sorry, they're huge AND the server is SLOOOWWWW during the summer)

So, for your thoughts, both positive and negative, thank you. For the price, strength, practicality and look, I really feel that you can't go wrong with OEM.

Thanks all,
Nilesh

I like it! But I'm biased because I have them on my4th gen without a drop. Nice car.

They don't look bad. They look more extreme on the 3rd and 4th gens. I bet they are nice and solid, though. You won't have to worry about denting them on potholes.

Dude. Seriously, this thread is 5 years old, and so is the post you're replying to.

If you have something for sale, use the appropriate classifieds section.
