Does anyone know if 5th gen 17" rims fit on 4th gen se max?
I also plan dropping the car in the future and wonder if this rub in anyway with these new rims.

Plenty of 4th Maximas have them. They fit perfectly. Personally, I'd like to find some that are lighter and better looking.

I have the 5th gen wheels..not by choice either. You should have no problems with rubbing when you drop the car....at least I don't have any problems.

I agree with abnorm...they are pretty heavy for 17's.

There are about 7-8 org members that have them now. They are HEAVY for a 17, but to me look more appropriate than any other 4th gen rim. ALL rims made for Maximas from 1989 to the current ones are interchangable, they all share the same lug number and spacing and offset. NO rubbing at all.
