Any opinions on Miro wheels??

As some of you might know I have the hardest time finding rims I really like that aren't $3-4000 a set. I have a tendency to fall in love with wheels that are now discontinued ie. the 5Zigen Gravis 1 for example. Those wheels are almost impossible to find and if I did, replacements are non-existent if something happened to them . I am always on the prowl looking and came across these today. They are Miro 935 and now come in 5X114.3 sizes with multiple offset choices.

The wheels are 1 piece, concave and weigh 22# for an 8.5" and 24# for a 9.5" rim. They clear BBKs and I think they look great. If anyone has any experience with this company I would love to hear your feedback. Enjoy the pics.

Not a bad looking wheel, Tim. I've never been a fan of concave, I love lips, but I think these will look great on your setup.

Get em!

+1 on other finishes. Any other options?

That's what I was thinking.

From what I've found out only the machined silver and matte black.

I think they would look siiiick on my car as well. I've said it before, the only color wheel that really looks good on LS is a silver wheel. These rims have a great reputation with the BMW crowd, I just don't know anything about the manufacturer.

I'm going to look around and do some more research but I might have a freshly powdercoated set of coupe 19's for sale soon.

They look good. Centercaps are ugly though. I did see them on a VW beetle before.

Ironic. I read the first few posts of that thread and quit when one member guessed Tenzos. Read through the rest of it just now and the wheels look good on Nacho's car, but I think they will look even better on a car that's not silver.

Thanks for the link Tian.

Thanks for the free thread bump, Tian! Lol

Centercaps are terribly ugly, dunno how to get custom caps or anything. The company itself is based out of Berea, CA and are really cool guys. I've only had them installed for 2 days now (Miro type 111) and I love them. Maybe I should have done 9.5" all around, but I like the difference tbh. I like the distinctiveness of the rear, makes it look much more aggressive. Once I get my 20mm spacers, it's gonna transform how they look.

Anyways, Miro was nice enough to bypass the shop I actually bought these through and shipped them straight to my house to save everyone on shipping costs. As you've said, they are very popular and reputable with the Bimmer community. I'll give an update in a few weeks to see how well the wheels are holding up. Those are the only finishes they come in, too. I was hoping to be one of the only Gs to have these wheels, but looks like I've interested others, haha.

I actually found these while browsing CL. Got em from Driven Authority in Sacramento, CA for 900 shipped. Couldn't pass the deal up on these very sick, very concave wheels. Do 9.5" all around on a sedan, they would look beautiful

Did Driven Authority offer them in different offsets than the +15 and +20? For the Bimmer crowd they offer them in the high 20's/low 30's which would better for me in a sedan. I have sent e-mails to a couple of vendors today and am waiting for their responses. Looking back at my sent e-mails Driven Authority is one of the people I sent an e-mail to.

I didn't steal this idea from you I swear! I actually found them while cruising eBay and started googling my azz off for more info. I was thinking the same thing though, might be the only G on Driver with them if I followed through. I guess it's almost impossible to be the first at anything around here unless it's a one off product.

DA didn't offer the fronts in 15, which I should have talked to Miro about first. And they only offered them in +20 for what they had in stock. So I dunno if they went any higher

I sell the Miro wheels to BMW forums. I have these in stock for the BMW application. The quality on these is really nice. The finish is nice too. This was a small batch that Miro ran in the 5.114.3 bolt pattern. So they are limited production.

The application for the 5.114.3 bolt pattern is

19 8.5 F and 19 9.5 R
offsets 15 F and 20 R

Here are some images
