Those wheels will not fit... They are a 4-lug universal which means 4X100 and 4X114.3 bolt patterns. Your car is a 5X114.5 bolt pattern...

No. You can't fit a pentagon in a square hole.

They won't work. You need 5 lug rims.

youll probably be able to get atleast 3 holes to line up and that should be good enough.

you could totally rock those with a 4 lug swap!!!! uppet:

like a smart car? they only have a three lug.

Yeah... all you need to do is JBweld the smart car hub onto your Maxima hub.

3 + 5 = 8

It's the perfect plan.

a 3 lug swap??? Wish I'd thought of that, I was still caught up on the old fashioned 4 lug swap. Just remember that it it doesn't seem to fit right, use screws through your new wheels and the cross drilled holes in your rotor, that's what they're there for!!!!!

No no. You torque it to 400ft lbs, then go 90* more to stretch the lugs.



Oh ****. No, wait. Thats headbolts.

you guys, stop braggin about your sets of rims. read what i did.

My 4 LUG (ADR or ICw, whichever rims GT SPORTS) rims fit my maxima with little modification.

I fit these babies easily by pasting up the lugs with lipstick. and held the rim in place. so on the back side of the rim. you can see the 5 lug pattern. But as said my rims are 4 lug. but anyways. i went to my garage, got a trusty drill and a drill bit. and bored the hell out of that rim. But needless to say, the rims work. and to help them sit in properly, i had to drill a small hole through the rim and the rotor to be sure a ziptie would go through. but i hope this will help someone.

of course. thats how we do it in the org. We gotta have some kind of humor going around, or else. we would be eating each other and being bored out our minds on this forum.
