I swapped my wheels back to the stock ones, so i figured it might as well get a quick measurement of weight. The stock rim has the Continental Contiextreme Contacts 225/50/16 while the Murano rims have General Exclaim UHP at 225/40/18. I basically used a bathroom scale that I stepped on first. Then I held each wheel while getting back on the scale. The results are: Stock rim with tire: 44lb Murano rim with tire: 47lb.

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
It looks very nice.
Looks like its starting to be a fad I also got my wheels from Dayle. I have real wide tires on, 245/45. Yes they rub, but its actually the fender liner they rub on. I need to adjust my camber a little.

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
They look good though in general I find 18" (and larger)wheels not to be my taste on the SVX. I do think heavy/wide spoke wheels look good on the car.

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
huh? i don't know about real tall.
245/40 is only .5" taller than 225/40R18 but i'll grant you, that's why i'm waiting on my 225/40 BFG KDW's for my murano rims. Which i got for $100 total, off craigslist. which is good cuz the rubber's gonna be $800 mounted and balanced. FYI a 245/40 is recommended for 8-9.5" rim. Murano's are 7.5"

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
Don't waste your money on kdw's.
Get cooper zeon 2xs tires. They're like $100 a piece and they're very comparable. Thats what i got and they're amazing. At least look into em!

i've had coopers too. but they're a lil noisier and grip could be a lil better, but wear is good. i'm thinkin these are gonna be the last set of tires i'll be buying for a LONG time, considering this depression. these are summer tires. i've got hankook ipike winter tires, which are way better than studded tires, on oe rims.

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
Yeees those Murano rims look great. Good thing about this wheel design is, it doesn't look aftermarket. At least in my opinion.. I've had them on my car for about 2yrs by now. I don't hear any rubbing noise from rear. I heard it when my inner fender was coming off though.

Re: Pic's of my New Murano's
i do like the look, but when your bearings fail, i won't expect anything other.
