Default MRR GT ONE With Nexen Low Pro Tires

I been researching about these rims and finally found a place that sells them. I live in Jacksonville Fl and the closest place to buy these rims is Orlando. This rim shop over there is going to charge me 1920$$ for 19x8.5 front & 19x9.5 rear with nexen low pro tires.

Does anyone know anything about these tires?
Is 1920$$ a good deal?

try asking around our vendors...... or try to get hold of SonicMS from mountain view CA they do shipping as welll.... you might be able to get better prices.... i heard B2auto sells the rims only for 900 shipped but try to find that out from them with your zip..... but as far as tires.... you can select them and buy rims anywhere else

thats too much for those wheels and those cheap tires. MMR GT1 wheels in 19" are $1000 bucks at most. Those tires in 19" are about $120 each.

contact our CL vender b2autodesigns...that set would be around 900 shipped. here is his link
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...t-pricing.html
then just buy your tires from tirerack.com
A local dealer here in San Jose,CA quoted me 1550.00 with the same tires,same wheel. So you are getting quoted pretty high.

the tires shouldnt go for too much. yes they are inexpensive but i like them for a cheap UHP tire, they are suprisingly quiet and are pretty good in the rain
