20" Murano rims to Australia ?

[mickd]

Hi all ! I'm expecting delivery of my new Murano in a few weeks but here in Oz we only get the 18" rims on any model, our 'Ti' is the top of the range of which we only have two, the other is an 'St'............so I am curious to find out if someone can steer me to where I can perhaps purchase a set of your Muranos' 20 " rims, cost will be an important factor in this exercise, I know I can put aftermarket rims on it but I am simply trying to remain within the warranty requirements.....any help or advise would be appreciated.

How much are you looking to spend? shipping is going to be insanely expensive

[mickd]

yeah............Odd tyre size will cause hassles too I think, it was something to consider is all

just as an indication of how much we are overcharged down here, my local Nissan dealer quoted $885 (Aust) for the 18" chrome wheels (each !), Nissan US has them for $355................scary !

Reconditioned 20" OEM Wheels can be had here for about $350 USD. Shipping would be the real factor to worry about. I cannot find the weight per wheel, but I suspect you'd be looking at a shipping weight of about 100lbs for just the 4 wheels. If you add tires, you are going to be in the about the 300+lb range.

Looks like it will be too much of a hassle to import from US, I will probably go for aftermarket rims here now, I was trying to avoid any possible warranty problems as I don't know if wider rims and tyres would cause any mechanical or CVT hassles futher down the track considering a different wheel offset and a wider track..................still have a few weeks to consider it all. I would be interested to hear of any problems with wider rims & tyres tho.

Thanks from Oz
