Hi, all. I’ve been lurking on these forums for weeks now. I am planning to order an MY LR soon, and the toughest decision for me is the wheels. I test drove a Performance. I’m fairly sure it was a PUP, though I was having too much fun and forgot to confirm that. Having read all the concerns about rough ride quality, I was surprised at how great the Performance felt. I didn’t think the ride was uncomfortable at all.
I’m in the Midwest, with streets that aren’t always maintained the best. So I’m debating with myself over the wheel choice, both in terms of comfort, winter performance, and durability when encountering pot holes. I prefer not to deal with snow tires. We don’t get a lot of snow anyway.
I’m also heavily leaning towards the MSM color, so I’ve been looking at pictures of both wheels with that color. I think if either the Gemini or Induction wheels were the only choice, I’d be happy with either one. But I’m finding it very difficult to choose between the two.
I’ve read all the threads I can find on either wheel, but didn’t see one that was explicitly a “vs” thread. What is the current consensus, if any, on these wheels?
