Getting Rims need pictures

Well first... I need some pictures of black maxima's with black rims with the silver lip... i'm not sure if i want to go with that black look with the silver look or just get opal colored rims... i think the black with the silver look will look good on black/silver/white cars...

the rims i was looking at was the Speedy Lite-G rims

They look really good IMO... or i might get the Nakayama's X7....

check out page 1 of my homepage. I have a black max with konig monsoons. they are graphie with a silver lip. I have recieve numerous compliments. One peice of advice, stick with some form of the 5 star platform. They'll always look sweet on Maximas. Good luck.

Thats the beauty of rims with a lip. You must get plus one size to achieve the look you want. (I.E.- he has 19s, but they look like 18s).

That is true about the lip. I have 19s but in that picture they look like 18s. If you see the car in person you can definetly tell they are 19s.

This website I found lets you pick a make and model car as well as an exterior color (so you can choose for example a red Maxima) and it offers a variety of different wheels to see on the car. http://www.discounttire.com/dtc/broc...heelsInter.jsp
if it's a repost , i'm sorry. but i know i had a hard time finding sites like it.

Either one of those wheels look nice, I say go with the black on black.
As for as lips go, yeah they tend to make the wheel look smaller. If you look at them from an angle they look their size looking at the top of the wheel to the bottom from lip to lip. But straight on, all you really notice is the center of the wheel, the lip looks seperate.

I think these look better than the ones that you posted:




Of the two that you listed, I think I like the first ones best though.
Like said before, get a size larger than you want them to look. The lip on them will make them look tiny. ha ha

Personally I don't really like too many spokes on a rims. But if I were to chose between those two rims I would have to say the speedy 6(?), the first ones. I like the color of the wheel plus (like said before) the rim having a lip looks friggen sweet. PLus black on black would look good.

I have 19s MODA R6 if that makes any difference:
