Default Does anyone know Miro wheels?

Hi guys!

I like to know if anyone know something about Miro Wheels?

http://www.mirowheels.com/


I've seen what seems to be an old set with step lip that are pretty nice and would like to know what those worth?

Are they good? seem like three pieces wheels?

Right know my car is on Work VS-XX and I'm looking for a track set.



Those are 17x8.5 front and 17x10rear. Unknow offset for now.


They are sold named as Miro STP-1 wheels.

I was sponsored by Miro. Those are STP-1's which are a knockoff of a knockoff. They are DZ Exklusiv knock offs which are a knock off of WRDs. Both STP-1s and Exklusivs are single piece wheels.

Both the original and knock-offs were for the Euro market, Miro brought over fake DZ Exklusivs called STP-1s. Same general design though.

All I can say about them is they are about $400-$500 a set brand new but a very durable wheel. DZ Exklusivs are about $1200 used and WRDs are about $3500. Sold my set of STP-1s back when they weren't mainstream for $440 with tires, they're cheaper now.

I love Lexus and don't mind the Japanese scene but was sad when I heard Miros were being thrown onto Japanese cars, then a bit more sad when my other sponsor ESM started selling to the Japanese market as well.

Pictured here are WRDs (rear) and DZ's (front)

Exactly. Most of them are reps but of a higher quality...
