Rims: To buy or not to buy?

Hey everyone, i just got myself a 98 maxima GLE and want to upgrade it. Ive already done the tinting and the system, asll I really wanna do is make it sound and look nice. What size and brand wheels do you suggest? I definetley want 17-18's and in gunmetal. The rims im lookin to buy now are gunmetal Falken Torque5's. Check em out and give me an opinion at Phishy11@aol.com. Thanks everyone.

go for 18's, also might want to consider a suspension upgrade. the 18's will look funny if you're car is not lowered.

If you want something nice go with 19s. Sounds like you aren't too into racing and seems like you have a pimp ride already. Y not?

IMO i dont care for custom 17s on the max, gotta go with atleast 18s, but thats just my opinion. if oyu want 17s, id go with the 17s off the '03 SE

Don't go above 17", 18" max if you really "have to", and get the lightest ones you can.
