I like 18s
19s would be nice but for me, no money and also the roads here suck

I hear what you're saying but 1.) the cussing is totally uncalled for. And 2.) I would agree with you if those of us in favor of smaller diameter/lighter wheels were rude and offensive such as "Why the h. do you want 18s or 19s? That's stupid...". No, we are simply saying that he might want to consider 17s for x reasons. If 96sho is still set on 18s or 19s, fine. Ignore our posts. I don't see the harm.
Ditto. The Fred Durst on triple espresso attitude has it's place, but that place is not here. If a simple "18 or 19" answer was all he was after, maybe the author would have set this thread up as a poll, instead.

thebigsadler- As a rule, any thread invites a certain amount of dialogue/discussion - I would agree that "airbags & air cylinders" are WAY , but next time you feel the urge to spew profanity, maybe take your own advice and just hit the back button. Oh, and uh. . .meeelllllooooowww.

It's alllll goooooood, man.

you know what i mean? i am not trying to be a ****, but over and over and over people are just being dumb and posting dumb shtt.

eai cylinders.. lol.. watch your maxima eat through those like a fat kid on a skittle.

sprints or some jic's would work well.
What kind of rims is your Max sittin on cause they look nice!!

Oh so where not supposed to explain or answer and voice our opinions on the topic discussed. Whats with the attitude from come of these people. People are making some valid points on why to choose a smaller wheel and some people who votes for the 19s and like the bigger wheels are like gettin *****y like they have PMS or something. Calm down we are just voicing are opinions. jeez.

I vote for 18s

I'd have to agree.....potholes suck!!! Better get five rims...you should always have a spare when it comes to 19". Trust me I found out the hard way!!! Personally I love my 19's.

19"

I live in the DC area. a lot of potholes this year. I've bent 2 sets of 19's since november. You cant drive like a maniac thats for sure. One set is 19 X 8.5 w/ 235/35-19 tires. Very slow acceleration. The other set is 19 X 8.5 with 225/35-19 tires. Much quicker. Looks better. More road feel. BAD with potholes. Hope this helps a bit.

hmmm I have 19"s and a couple sets of 18"s

19"s looking ghetto? hell no they look sweeeet 20s starts lookin odd

If your roads are good and you dont drive too much then go for 19"s if your roads suck and you drive alot stick with 18"s

I have 19"s as play wheels and 18"s as daily drivers *cough* when I dont let people borrow them *ahem* hahaha j/p

I've been stuck on 19"s since hmm October? and I've driven less than a thousand miles but damn I wish I had my 18"s on (plus my 19"s are a biootch to clean 4 hours easy)

next wheel project for the Maxima? 17x8s or 8.5s lightweight wheels!!! haha and then another secret recipe
