Has anyone attempted or currently running 2012 OEM GTR wheels on a 2000-2003 maxima? I have a lead on a set and I really want them but what mods will I have to do to use them. My Max is currently using Tein springs. The 2012 GTR wheels are 20 x 9.5 fronts and the rears are 20 x 10.5, are they too big to use on a daily driven 2002 Maxima?

The gtr wheels are way off the maximas league. Even with spacers unless you want swappers

How so?

I'm assuming massive fitment issues.

Grab one and test fit it on the car.

They are not close by so I'll have to do research before I take the drive. I have a set of 3 piece lowenharts 20" x 9" all round but I saw these wheels while picking up some other parts and thought it would be sweet to run these wheels on my maxima. After all, they are made by Rays.

Anyone have any real info they can share with me?

The key piece of information that is missing is offset. From there it's a very simple calculation for fitment.

But generally speaking, 20's are entirely too big for the 5th gen. Fitment is one thing, but practicality and look is another...

To my knowledge, GTR wheels are specific to GTRs.

They have specialized grooves to fit only on a GTR... and even if you could rig them; I'll echo others here:

major fitment issues.

Will not fit i tried, offset causes tire to rub struts would need about a 50mm spacer then the tire would stick out about 6" past the fender

How much were you looking to pay for those wheels? Would that be a good investment for a 13 year old car? I would think those wheels would be pretty expensive relative to the value of the car but i may be wrong. Just wondering.

Lol. So many reasons not to pursue this.

GTR wheels on Maxima (except 7th gen) = $3000 chrome 20's on a $500 hacked up 1990's Honda Civic.

There is zero good reason to do it, even on 7th gen its retarded, but at least they can pull it off.

I see far too many Civics rolling around with huge *** rims, always gives me a good chuckle

Some dude just moved into my neighborhood, drives a 6th gen riced out with nismo stickers and yellow calipers, and fake vents, AND 20" chrome wheels with stock ride height....his car looked like a truck the one time I ended up behind him...

Horrible...

The gist of it is, dont ruin your Maxima with 20" wheels!

Can you take pictures ?

D.Stillwell

Yes, I plan on doing it. Just havent walked by at a good time yet with good lighting.

This should be good

I would think mounting GT-R wheels on a 5th gen would be about as difficult as slapping 5th gen wheels on a GT-R. Would love to see it though...
