Yeah way too bling for me. But as KNYFE said, to each his own. If you think they'll look good, go for it! I'm sure they'll look better on the max.

Most people here don't like chrome, and I don't either, but don't let us tell you how to mod your car.

and it probably weighs a ton.

Hmmm....good for 'swangin' on.
Heavy as hell I bet. And they look like they belong on a truck. Keep lookin, Chrome looks nice with white.
Not my style though.

Heres the thing about posting wheels in here.
You're gonna have people say:
looks good, looks bad, wtf are you thinking those are ugly, ehh theyre ok, whatever, no one cares, etc....
If you think they look good, get em!
Don't let what other people say about this kind of stuff influence your decision.
If I gave my opinion, i'de say definitely not liking them... but as people said, to each his own.....
You're going to get alllll kiinds of mixed reviews, and be flamed more than people like em probably.

Not into chromes..especially on white cars. IMHO, I believe wheels should contrast the car, not blend in. One should highlight the other, but like everyone says...it's your choice. I assume you've given this much thought, but would like to get the view of other enthusiasts, so that's my .02cents

Tripple dipped? That leave me the believe its some heavy wheels. Ask how much each wheel weight? Those maybe truck wheels.


The design is ok, I dont think it would suit our cars, maybe a differently styled car. I'd pass. 5zigen you cant go wrong. . .

Well these are what I had on my maxima, 20in and needless to say my car was almost stolen because of them. The idiots tried to take a screw driver to my ignition. Who still does that? good thing my max has the ignition immobilizer. I sold the rims and besides it was to heavy and sent my gas mileage to high hell.

It's up to you man. Some people think Volk TE37s in hyper black look like black steelies from far (and don't know shh) but I really like them.

As far as the wheels I like, this entire board could say they are busted and it really doesn't matter at the end of the day and the car is in my garage.
