Opinions on Niche Misano M117 wheels

[poncho@home]

I am starting to look for wheel upgrade from my 19" black appearance package wheels. I came across what I think is a decent deal for some Niche Misano M117 Satin black wheels in a staggered fitment, 19x8.5ET33 and 19x9.5ET35. Perfect size to run 255/40/19 & 285/35/19.

Doing research on these wheels they seem to be quite heavy at 26lb & 28lb. How much do OEM wheels weigh in comparison? I don't want to add heavier wheels.

And how is the quality of these Niche wheels? This is for street driving only, no track use

OEMs weigh like 30-33 lbs IIRC, so these are a little lighter. However the fronts are narrower than your PP wheels, so that's a little bit of an unfortunate downgrade.

Seeing as I can find no discussion on the manufacturing technique, I'm going to assume these are not quite as robust as the factory wheels, since they're a bit lighter and likely similar construction. They do look nice.

I don't have PP wheels, I have black appearance package, 19x8.5 ET42.5, so the Niche are the same width with a 7.5mm move outwards, which is welcome. Thanks for the weights

They seem to be a very similar look to the 2018+ PP2 wheels, I like the look and the fitment will give a nice stance from what I have now.

7.5mm outboard is definitely moving in the right direction. Add some 5mm spacers and you're half-way to flush

I run 20x8.5" Niche Targa M129's on my Lincoln MKS and they are fantastic wheels. My stock 20's were almost 34lbs and these are 29lbs. Certainly not lightweight, but the change was noticeable to me. They seem to be decent quality and I certainly recommend them.
