Original 2000 17" Audi TT rims on a 3rd

I've got these four extra rims from my TT. I think they might look good on the 3rd gen max... unfortunately the bolt pattern isn't exact, but a coversion would still be cheaper than a whole new set of rims.

Added...


Dropped...


Cleaner impression, because of the rough photoshop job.


whachoo think? i think the openings match the flat geometric shapes of the 3rd gen, like the tail light from the side echoes the same shape as the rim space.

if you have a TT, you obviously have the money to maintain it...if you have the money to maintain it, $500 wheels should be the least of your worries at this point...sell 'em and get some proper-fitting wheels.

Why don't you just sell the TT rims, then buy something designed to fit on your Maxima?

It sounds like you aren't going to use them on a TT.

Besides, they look pretty crappy, IMO.

yea dude, if you have no use for them, just sell em and get some rims that look good and fit the max. red92maxse is right, they dont look that great. If you like em and want em, all the best...this is just my 0.02

adapting wheels that don't fit = stupid idea.

you can watch sale ads at various wheel places and find wheels that fit properly for less money than it would cost to custom make adapters for what you're trying to do.

welp, i'm a snobby a$$hole and i have always hated the ugly giant flat spokes of the TT. they look even worse on that car. even if you could adapt them, forget. throw them in a lake.

ok! the tribe has spoken... i don't know if they'll get much resale since the bolt pattern is pretty uncommon. but i will try.

sell them to a target audience that will buy them!!!! why troll around here? it is practically a waste of time. anyone buying them here will then probably only try to unload them again somewhere else.

You've become your own worst enemy according to that Hyundai loving 2nd gen maxima site.
