Got my new 18's put on...Pics!!
 
Bought some new rims. They are Ace Decorsa Stellar in hypersilver. Their 18 x 8.5 and wear 245-40/18 Hankook Ventus HR2 tires.

What do you guys think? I think their pretty damn sharp and i have yet to see them on any other max, which i like.

95bkackmax18s 07-09-2004 03:02 PM

Gen8888 07-09-2004 03:04 PM

Ha, those pics make my drop look....good sadly. I have some sag with my drop which those pics dont capture really. The ride however isnt bad. Im sitting on B+G springs w/ stock SE struts that have 105K miles on them :shy:

Definately am keeping them clean. Got them wednesday and already was out there in 93 degree weather cleaning them!

agree looks nice plus i ever wondered how the mud flaps looks body colored in pebble beige and they looks nice too, i'm painting them whenever i take my car to fix front bumper(accident)

95bkackmax18s 07-09-2004 03:12 PM

hey, i just noticed you have dual exhaust? was that 'custom' or do they sell a "kit"? i said it once and i will only say it one more time, keep em clean. just playing:)

DCM Maxima 07-09-2004 03:12 PM

The car looks PIMP keep it man like the all reds too.

VIP Maxima 07-09-2004 03:20 PM

PIMP. i love MM evo-5's and these look similar, so one word. PIMP.

btw its the first time that i see 18" wheels that actually look BIG to me on a max. how much do they weight?

Yeah, i also like Millies, but they are somewhat overplayed. I like these because they remind me of them (as well as Moda R6's) yet have a nice distinctive look. Oh, and my scale was messed up when i got them, so no weight. Oh, and i get the same comment about them looking bigger than they are. My buddy has 18s with a lip, and they look SO small in comparison to mine...

wish they made em in 19".

i think the reason that they look like 19"s is because of the spokes. they are longer than other 5 spoke rims. if u look closely, ud see that the spoke comes all the way near the tire and the edge of the lip where as in other wheels, thats not the case.

exactly, which is why i love them. 19's would look huge!

ok well here is my opinion. the rims look nice but i would have gotten in another color because it looks to shiny. but that is me. car looks good though. keep modding.

Being that they dont make them in another color, thats not possible ;). However, i do like gunmetal, and wanted that for a long time. Reason i got them in Hypersilver is because yes, they stand out. I wanted something classy yet something that stood out and i couldnt get that with gunmetal really or plain silver...


thanks for your opinion though...


Oh, and they sun was shining right on them too (sun was setting behind me). That also adds to their shiny-ness....

Damn dude your car keeps getting better and better :thumbsup:

Those wheels are sick...always loved when the center of the wheel is set in compared to the rest of the wheel if you know what I mean. What was the offset on those?

maximus_pr 07-09-2004 03:53 PM

small world ah

Thanks!!

I know exactly what you mean and thats a big reason as to why i got them. Offset is 38mm

Wheels looks good! Not feelin the duel(lol) exhaust. Did you lower your car some more? Looks like a sprint drop.

maximus_pr 07-09-2004 04:05 PM

maybe someone with photochop can do them in different colors to see how they would look in hyperblack or gunmetal

gtr_rider 07-09-2004 04:05 PM

Looks good man

Not feeling your rice can...err...apexi can exhaust ;)


No, not lowered anymore. I guess thats what 245-40/18s do, fill in the wheel well some more...

Thanks for the compliment...
