Hey please don't get mad at me, but your tires look weird because they're way to wide, also what kind of springs did you use? The drop looks like a 1.3" drop in the front or so am I right? Why did you use that wing :-\. I mean I know everyone has their personal preference but it kind of looks weird, but then again thats your preference nice job on lowering it though.

any rubbing at all with the drop and the 17's...thinkin about droping mine soon but havent dcided if im geting rims or not, and why did you have to buy wheel spacers...anyway...looks good, i think you made a more original choice with black rims on black car and it looks good, would look sick if you made the body kit shinny

later

Just watch out, go over any bumps and your fenders will dent and get bent outwards and upwards with your wheels sticking out that much. I think most people here would agree with me that your car would be better off without the spacers. But that's just our opinion

the offset on those wheels is INCREDIBLY wrong.. you may break wheel studs off if you hit a hard enough bump with that much of an offset on such small width wheels.

i kind of like the offset in the back, sort of gives it a muscle car look. dont care for the front though. i have mixed emotions about the black rims. personally i like the chorme or silver on the black cars because thats all you can see at night.

but my opinion dosent mean **** do what you like

I think that your car looks great except yes thats right except for the altezza chrome tail lights. I think those lights are played out and really throws the whole look off . So I suggest you either go back to stock or get the New Altezzas with that carbon fiber look to it,that would fit a lot better beleive me.

loose the spacers and spoiler. and get rid of the lettering above the altezzas. one says "max" dont know what the other says.

after that , think about the skyline tail mod, then your car will be ready to roll.

I think the car looks great, you just need to get your kit painted to match the car. Also, the skyline taillight mod would look really good on your car, and remove the lettering. Love the black on black.

i agree with the spacers. lose those mainly because you can really damage your car if you accidently hit a dip or speed bump. other than that, your car looks fine.

new jersey people are outrageous with maximas

its cool but the spoiler on a front wheel drive car is played out even though some look cool they are just pointless. i'm glad you didn't do chrome. i guess those spacers are important to your car's health so do what everyone says.

its a different look for a max no doubt. not bad

thanks for all your input... im thinking about flaring out the fenders a littel so they dont stick out as much... also I'm most likely giong to repaint the car when i get my house in august cause ill have a garrage. but for all you that dont like my tail lights i agree with you but theres not much in selection these days im giong to buy the skyline covers i saw in vqpower.com

heh i think that's irrelevant, as most people don't drive by your car and say "ah big mistake your car is front wheel drive, get rid of that wing!"

the spacers are huge- for safety's sake i think they need to go
go for a 5mm or so
dont know about the 'max' badging, and the chrome altezzas hurt the look from the rear since your car is black on black.
i know your site says -two tone- but it's more like "body kit still needs painting" rather.
this is all meant to be constructive and no one wants to see you have serious problems with your fenders and those wheels on +10mm spacers
good luck
