so because none of the vehicles shown are lowered I know nothing about suspension? hmm.. well the blazer had to be lifted CORRECTLY 3 inches for the 26's, not nuckles or blocks, new suspension, control arms, shocks etc etc. but I see what your getting at, the maxima was lifted with ebay spring (fake coilovers) and tokico blues... the legend, i used my own lath to make custom nuckles to lift it. now the current maxima I drive is lowered and this one was built for speed but I know longer have interest in it unless I boost the 3.5 in it
P.S. As a rim man, I'm sure you know this, but keep in mind those rims posted will APPEAR larger than most 22" rims. Most 22" have an inner lip, or spokes that don't run out to the bead. Rims that have full length spokes will look MUCH bigger, without comprimising actual practicality too much.
The Enkei 19" I have are a good example of a FULL SPOKE design:
If you have your head set on the "lable" of a 22" rim, or just really want the lip style, then I suppose you're stuck with an actuall 22". Just something to think about

Not implying you know nothing about suspension. With all your cars you went the other way though (raised) to fit those massive wheels, you're talking about doing a complete 180*. I'm not telling you not to do it man, I just want to make sure you know what's involved in doing it right. My personal view of how ugly I think all the cars you posted are doesn't really matter if you like them I suppose, right?
Those are very original never seen them, let alone on a 5th. I think you're on the right track though, anything over 20" is getting pretty ridiculous, if you can settle on a sick 20" rim (to you), then you'll be able to lower it reasonably and have it look good! If it's for sale, why don't you just call and ask the guy what rims they are? Look kind of like the A8 Rims

Now those are enkei 19s? (G37's) i love those wheels, i've seen them on one 4th gen burgundy and said that's exactly what I wan to do to my 4th, but I really really really want a 5.5 gen and yours is white and everything. sell her to me as she sits lol
#84
Your view is respected, its your view, as I stated I have done all my vehicles to my liking, not because the of what someone else implied I should do. I understand why people done like the Blazer esp, I didnt like the wheels at first but feel in love with them, esp while driving. love how they "chop" and as far as the other wheels and other cars, I've done because others said it couldnt be done or I just shouldnt. I like to be different so i do what I want

Funny you should say that she's going up for sale, but I'm in Canada, and I'm keeping the G37's for my new G35. But..... that's a 5th gen Again, I've done things to that car that I was told weren't possible. ie. 5.5 grill in the 5th gen bumper.

I can drive down Western Ave. in Chicago and find at least 2 blazers on 26" choppers, and at least 20 cars/trucks on choppers period. 4th gen on 22s I can run into half a dozen of those riding thru the Chi. Your choice of wheels wasn't even different or unique at all, choppers are the most played out rim of this decade. There is plenty of cars that look just like the pics you posted. Saying you did it to be different is honestly BS bro and you know it.

I think this statement is BS honestly. You didn't do anything different. Anyone can go on cardomain/google right now and find a bunch of cars that look just like the ones you posted.

your right, anyone can but I didnt, these are my cars and have been, if you have to create a facade to impress people, in that case I should have posted a boosted maxima and said it was mine, your choice of wheels on your maxima looks like **** to me but do i judge, I say hey, thats what he wanted.

and to say its bs "bro" lol you live in CHI, i live in SC, I can go to atlanta florida NC or even here and find a dozen maxima's that look like yours, My blazer is unique and my cars have been unique for me and the area I'm living in, people here in the south hadn't seen a blazer on 26s maybe 24's until I did it, now I have a white guy with a white 98 blazer on 26's here.

... Question, has anyone add and Ipad into there sound system on the org yet? I've search but no luck, thought about it since people here are letting Ipad go go cheap, it would be a cool idea to do.

Multiple posts to reply to one post, you know what that means....

the "White" guy was to show you how I started it someone else copied it and did the same thing and SAME wheels thats why I sold the wheels for the 28's... and if you say so. the concept is for me to do because one I enjoy doing it, 2 my wife wants it and 3, I ENJOY DOING IT. but hey it originated down south but not south carolina, texas, florida and georgia. I promise you things here are slow, ask PBS, he gets ridiculed by our own kind, "blacks" because he drives a maxima like a white boy would, hell I get talked about because I chose a 96 maxima and did a 3.5 swap verses buying a caprice or impala and doing big wheels, how things work up north where your at, its far more import minded then it is here and its more accepting, its not the same here friend, trust me. but like i said everyone is in titled to think a certain way about my choice of Blades (not choppas) lol and other wheel choices. its what I pay for and what I do, just like its what you pay for and what YOU do
#97
well I want to go for different wheels, but as I state once again, this is my WIFES car, so she wants the old wheels off the green maxima, so.. those will more then likely go on for awhile until i convince her to do something else..WOMEN
#98
If you're really stuck on going with 20"+ wheels, something along these lines would look great. Very VIP and classy here:

Here in the Chi its the same as it is everywhere else, there is just as much donks and cars that look like your pics as their is ricers. There is actually a smaller percentage of well done cars probably the case in most areas.
Then you keep mentioning black and white thing, soo much fail on your part, you do notice half the ORG if not more is black, this isn't about race. You're drowning in your own ignorance.
And there's this....

What? You just said you did it to be different then just mentioned how everyone in your area hated your 4thgen and love big rims, way to contradict yourself wise guy.

I dont recall mentioning anyone here hated my car, the loved it and someone actually bought it for 11k 3 years ago and now has a set of 24's on it. (over kill and ugly) I said people HERE hated on it big time
ignorance Please sir, where am I ignorant? Ignorant is being closed minded into a fade that will soon fade and anther will become popular and you will fall into it. How am I ignorant doing what I want to do I dont follow nor understand. But as always friend good luck with your modding, I'll continue to do mine.

I don't know how you defined ignorance as "being close minded into a fade that will soon fade" That doesn't even make sense, please open up a dictionary. Your ignorance is obvious in the posts you made especially when you jumped to the race issue. "I inspired a white boy to put 26s on his blazer" really? Make a movie about it maybe it'll be a hit like Precious.
