What brand are they? I have Miro Wheels and had them on for 3 months before taking them off for winter. No cracks or issues...

How did you find out they were cracked? Did your TPMS go off? Do you recall hitting any potholes or anything?

[3onDubs]

You have to put tires on them before you drive around

my tire pressure warning came on so i checked the pressure and sure enough it was flat. one rim lets air our real fast and the other is just a slpw leak. ive hit potholes before, nothing tooo bad but wouldnt the front tires take the hit worse then the back? more weight = more force.

I would think so, + the front tires are not as wide so the force wouldn't be as spread out as with the rears. I would find out who makes those wheels and try a different manufacturer. Just make sure they are identical to the ones you have now.

I got my wheels here and they have a sale on 19" going on too...

Miros are rock solid, I've hit some potholes and my ///M6 reps had no issues. I don't know too much about MOVEN. Usually one piece wheels don't have any issues but 2 and 3 piece wheels can be prone to leaks sometimes.

[joebaggg]

ok just ordered some miros from what i hear the moven are crap and they changed the name of the company because of it.

Joebaggg where are u in Middletown we should meet up sometimes man. I'm on Portmonmouth Main Street.

[Ph0zenstone]

phrozen06 - are those 18's or 19's? and they are silver color right not the anthracite?

[RiXst3r]

mine are flawless after 6000 miles on them, MiRo of course

[sinnet112]

They're good, as long as you buy Miro's.

cracked another rim today. im sooooo done with these rims if anyone wants to buy em from em from me im taking offers. i have like 8 of them im sure you can find 4 good ones to roll with. u can have em all.

i need to find a set of rims ASAP no more after market shit. anyone know where i can pick up a set of oem 18" set of rims that would fit? or if someone can point me in the direction of a nice looking rim that 100% wont crack? i need help ive had enough. willing to drop another 2k to be done with all this rim cracking bullshit.

[Ph0zenstone]

you must drive like a maniac and not avoid potholes or something. i've used plenty of wheels so far ranging from 14's to even 20's in NYC and I only cracked on 17" rim before due to a pothole that i couldn't avoid. i actually have the 19" Miro m6 reps right now on my bimmer and have had no issues with them driving in NYC, NJ and PA

[joebaggg]

i do have a heavy foot but i dont hit potholes and i definatly take care and stay alert when i drive. i dont undrstand whats going on. where did you get your set from? ive had rims all my life and i couldnt crack 5 in 2 yrs if i tired.

[Terrance28]

Damn guy are the miros the ones that cracked on you?

[joebaggg]

the one that cracked now is miro the other cracked ones arernt. i just need a diferent set that can take a beating a guess, can anyone reccomend one?

[OEKlM]

cracked two of my Miro's (19x9.5 et30) One wheel was cracked in 2 places and the other cracked in one place. I was running 265 tires and was lowered with more neg camber than spec. I got 2 et33s with 275 tires as replacements and am running about 1.4-1.7 neg camber now. Hopefully these hold up as I love my M6 reps but have to commute through bad roads and over the Tappan Zee Bridge every day.

[joebaggg]

the 275s fit? i think if i get more meat on the tire they will hold up. the front rims never crack, only the back

same here... both of my rears cracked and i only heard of the rears cracking.....

I have 275 Generals right now and they look better than the 265s imo. You get a little taller/wider tire so you get a little more rim protection. 265 Generals look a bit stretched on a 9.5 rim.
