rims

ok i know this isn't most people cup of tea in this forum but this is what i want so i would appreciate any negative comments being kept to yourself. I am looking to get 20" rims for my max but forgot what the measurements are that fit. Could anyone tell me that along with what size tire to run on those too. thanks

Just merely stating the ill-effects of having such big/heavy wheels on any car especially if it is a daily driver. People tend to base many decisions on looks alone, not knowing the long term effects of such decisions. Then they come posting in the forum about how their suspension is messed up and how Maximas are a POS. Little do they know that they have nothing to blame but themselves. Think if this also: a car that's almost 10 years old have worn suspension components to begin with. Adding big/heavy wheels to that would quickly kill his suspension and/or drivetrain.

There's been countless of threads in this org which accounts many of the issues that have risen because of this. I remember reading an old long thread discussing this. You can find many more info by searching the forum.

personally, if i had the money i'd go with 20. But i just don't have that much money. its like $200 a tire. saying ouch everytime you hit a bump n then whipping out $100 to get the rim fixed. hopefully ur lowered otherwise it be really gay. but if you got the money, go for it.
