Morxchn Wheels

Has anyone used or heard of these wheels? They look great but the prices seem kind of low.

2-18x8, 2- 18x9 with correct offset for G35 coupe for 625 shipped.

I was looking at the same wheels on Ebay. I wonder how the quality is?

I would rather have OEM.

Was more of a curiousity as to how they were. I like the color scheme of the wheel

I'd rather have oem takeoffs also but I don't see too many classified ads for them in my area

to me they kinda look like rays.. well the ones that come on the sports package. Seems to me the only diff is that they are gloss black

That's what they are - replicas of the 18" sport wheels.


I know with other makes, it's common for certain manufacturers to make replicas of OEM rims. With the Mustang, most of the popular OEM wheels have 2 or 3 aftermarket manufacturers making replicas. They are of decent quality as well on par with OEM.

I do like the charcoal center finish of these wheels. Just wondering if anyone knows firsthand if the quality is up to par with an OEM wheel?

Doubt very much that they are forged like Rays. They are distributed by a company (OEWheelsllc) that I never heard of. They also sell a line of oem corvette, mustang and benz wheels. I'd also like to know if anyone has first hand knowledge of them.

Well as far as i know, the 18" sport wheels aren't forged either. Only the 19" coupe wheels are.

I'd buy OEM but more than likely a used pair wil be curbed or have some other blemish which drives me nuts

I'm searching information about these too... extremely good looking wheels and cheap to boot. The saying goes you get what you pay for but I want to make absolutely sure these are (or hopefully are not) crap.

Report back if you find anything out about this company and these wheels.
