2013 Rays vs. 2012 or Older Rays
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a 2013 with the new Rays and honestly I like the old Rays better, anybody have any idea how much a new set of say 2012 Rays might cost or where the best price and availability might be ?
Thanks - Bill Miller

I'll trade you

I have 2 sets of the old ones.
One factory color, one ready to be powder coated any color you desire

I agree.. The older ones are much better. Not really a fan of the new bumper either!

I want to keep my 2013 Rays, was thinking of buying a new or like new set of the older style. Didn't know how much new one's cost, probably - insane from a Nissan Dealer.

$550~ each

1000 bucks used. Think I've seen them in this ball park... Christ though, someone gave a set away for free not to long ago lol

The Rays have a much better offense this year, compared to last! Too bad they are stuck in the most competitive division.

Oh wait... You're talking about wheels.

Minsu 07-10-2013 10:36 PM

i actually really enjoy the new rays.
something more too look at you never see wheels like that lol

Minsu 07-10-2013 10:37 PM

the older rays, ive seen alot of similar designs on alot of other cars

I wonder if there is a difference in the weight between new and old.

The stock Rays are of excellent quality and had they put in the right offset, it would be really hard to replace. I happen to agree with the op regarding which is better between the two. Pre 2013 is better looking.

saw this post in the weight reduction thread the other day suggesting the 2013+ rays are heavier:
