thank you.
but, has anyone tried using 235x55x18 on their xtrail? how does this differ from the 235x50x18?
so many questions, sorry guys, just don't want to spend for it and not be happy in the end.
thanks again. |

I cant be sure if the ff pics are 55 or 60 series - but I cant seem to find the thread/forum where I got these pics last July when I researched Murano mags on Xty.
Will try to find the forum again - parang nissan forums sya eh. |

thanks macdon.
if I read it right, Sulphurman mentioned that using 55series would only leave about half an inch steering allowance and another guy posted that there may be possible rubbing issues with 4 adults in the car.
so would you agree that 235x50x18 is still the best/ideal tire size for the 18"murano mags? |

Yes it is, and also nearly all members here with 18 inchers use 235/50R18 size tires  _________________ we ride together, we die together...bad boys for life...

The overall diameter of the stock 16" mags/tires is about the same in 18" mags using 50series tires - which is why most of the members here use 235/50/R18
I hope you can find Murano center caps in Banawe as some of us had to course it thru US websites pa...... kasi either wala talaga mahanap dito or some Nissan dealers are charging 10k just for the 4 centers - that is kung meron ang dealers. Lumalabas nyan mas mahal pa yung center caps kaysa yung 4 na mags.

finally bought the tires for the murano mags.
i got the Pirelli scorpion from JSM Tires in Marikina at P7K each. they bought the stock mags/tires at P8K. total cash out - P20K.
now, time to look for those center caps.
macdon, would you happen to have a spare set of caps?
Thanks. |
