350z Rims or 03 SE Rims?

I am planning to buy either of these rims for my Max. Can't decide which ones , both are 17s and both come with new tires and both are around the same price. Th 350z ones are not the touring ones, they are the 7 spoke ones. Which ones do you guys think would look better on the max?

Well if you want the 350Z rims then you will either have to get 2 sets pf front rims or 2 sets of rear rims. Or put the wider ones on the front and skinnier on the rearfor a better turn in response.

I honestly don't like the 350z wheels, at all. The 03's are better but not by much IMO. I would go with some nice aftermarket 5 spokes (check the sig.) unless you are getting a really really good price.

If you talking about the 7 spoke rims on the 350(base and enthusiast rims) they donot look good, I would go either 03 Max or get the 18 inch 6 spokers from the Z. They are similar looking to the 03 Maximas rims.

isn't the offset on the z different though? and you would have to get 2 sets of front rims?

newbies...

altima SE 17" wheels are the best one, if you want stockish rims.
Go to nearest Nissan dealership and look at those beautiful 3.5L SE Altima wheels... yum.

I don't know, Nissan dealership will charge you crazy per rim with no tire, the other day I went there and asked for 04 17s and it was $720 per rim. Amazing, anyway what do you guys think of these rims? http://store.yahoo.com/speedandstyle/revboost.html
Thanks for the help.

yes, there are quite a few on the board that have this style rim. but outside of the .org, how many maximas have you seen with these wheels? how many maximas in your home town have any aftermarket wheels, let alone these?
