Muranos on my 93 AE finally

I got the wheels 18 months ago and it took me forever to come up with the tires at a Craigslist price. I decided to go with 225/45/18 to help fill the gap on the front fender. I am pleased with the look and it rides very smooth for 18s due to the 45 series. See pictures here:

Re: Muranos on my 93 AE finally

Are the windows tinted? If so what shade ? I was told that the 45's would rub with the 18" wheels and the speedometer would be off. It does look great . I love the red

Re: Muranos on my 93 AE finally

Looks good man, really nice looking car. I I also think you should check on the speedo.

Maybe it's just me, but every time I see a red SVX I feel like the top should be black.

Questions answered so far

The speedometer will read 2 mph slower than actual speed. Indicated speed of 65mph is truely 67.

The window tint is 35%

No rubbing issues.

Re: Muranos on my 93 AE finally

Amazing looking! I always felt the Muranos looked great on these cars (a lot of people tend to disagree for whatever reason) and as much as I would liked to have gotten a pair myself I went the cheap route and got some MoMo Winters back when I needed a quick rim set and found a new pair on the good ol' CG.

You're lucky to have such an awesome looking SVX in great shape!

Re: Muranos on my 93 AE finally

Yes, mine fit fine on a 92 ebony without spacers.
Altho I had tire rub in the back but that got fixed by doing some trimming of the fender liner.
