Defcon6 RIMS for MAXIMA????????????????????????

I am about to purchase these Maxxim defcon6 wheels (http://shop.store.yahoo.com/speedand...def617sil.html)for my 99 SE-L. I want the either 17 or 18". They come in silver or graphite/carbon... what size and color would you recommend? Here is a pic of what they look on this one Max (http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...=132618&page=4). I think graphite would look good on my Max since it is super black. What do you think? Also, I couldn't find any reviews of the rims...do you know anything about them? Are they of good quality? Light enough? Perhaps heavy? I really like the look so help me out!

b;ack and black would look pretty hot to tuners, but if your looking for a good look to everyone go w/ silver, most people associate black rims w/ stock oem caps

I like them...... My wheels look similar (7 spokes on mine instead of 6)...... Get them if you can get a decent price on them... (just my opinion though)

I have a pic of gunmetal Motegi MR7 on a black car. The rim is very similar to that rim in terms of looks.

Email me (phenryiv1@cs.com) if you want pics.

Personally, I think it looks really good to have gunmetal on black, but opinions vary...

Ok, I could be completely wrong here, but arent those rims 4 lug? Maximas are 5 lugs. They would look really good in black or gunmetal.

phenry - Do you like the MR7's?

I was thinking of getting some like that, and I think they would look really good. Can you email me a pic of those please? cdholland15@yahoo.com thanks!

Considering how good 18" wheels look on a max, i'm afraid that they will slow my car down a lot. I don't know maybe... I should just stick with 17's.

the defcon6 17" wheels weigh 18 lbs each(without tire of course). I don't know about the 18". The 17" motegi mr7 weigh 24.5 lbs each and 18" ones weigh 27.5 lbs.

I wonder how the gunmetal Defcon 6's would look on a sterling mist max?

I have pics of them on a silver car as well. It is not sterling mist, but it is close. Let me know if you want them posted...
