06 civics are 5 lugs, but is the small 5 lug pattern. im not sure of the numbers, but is defenitely smaller than our 5x114.3

and please do not do that, not only they wont fit, but why wud you want a honda logo on ur nissan? why not go with 5th gen 17s or 6th gen SL rims?

better idea. you could always take the wheels and sell on like b20vtec or other honda websites, seeing as how its brand new, and buy some 5th gen wheels

Make sure you get the hubs and rotors and calipers too. You can be the first Maxima with SI brakes.

Are you frickin serious. Is this guys for real.... If you did that then the Maxima.org posse would meet at your house and beat the crap out of you. If you want a honda then buy a honda.

Why not just try them on. If they look nice then keep them. If not sell them. If you keep them just remove the Honda centercap and replace with Nissan. All these Honduh Haterz in the house/

Because 1) they won't fit, 2) they won't look good.

I believe that the lugs do fit. The RSX has 5x114.3, as does the 5-lug and older v6 accord, the EP SI with the factory performance package, the S2000- need I go on? I don't know how the center bore will work with the maxima hub, but he could at least try.

You guys crack me up, making fun of him for wanting to put different rims on his car. How F'ing cool is it that half of the 4th gen guys who had custom rims a year or so ago all ran MM Evo 5s? It looked F'ing retarded that everyone had the same "custom" rims.

Grow up, you lame-@$$es.

Are you guys going to knock on Jeff92? He (and a lot of other 3rd/4th gen guys) ran Mustang wheels. What about the people who have run IS300 rims?

If this guy wants to run civic SI rims on his car, and if they fit, so be it. It is his car. No matter what, they are bigger than anything else that ever came on a 4th gen, and look better than most aftermarket abominations that people bolt on there. All he asked in this thread is if they would fit. Opinions were not needed.

That is actually not a bad idea. Keep the tires and get Maxima rims with the money from selling the rims. You know that the Honduh guys will eat them up.

Say Son. I don't know why people associate honda with ugly/sh*tty. You never know how they'll look unless you try.

I'd like to have those rims, because as many on this form know, I have the very rare 98 Maxima Si-R. The rims would not be a direct fit as-is, but each Maxima Si-R came with a conversion tool in the trunk so that Honda rims could be installed when desired. If I can't get the '06 Honda rims then I'll just keep rollin' on dubs.....

They look nice. Don't know why people here are getting their panties wadded at the thought of running Honda wheels. Get over it.

Problem is the stock 215-45-17 is too small. So you either go rice style and run them as is. Or buy new tires. Which would pretty much negate your deal. also any wheel that runs a 215 is probably a bit narrow for what A maxima should have. ie.. 7".
