just get the 2k2 se rims, powder coat them a gloss or a flat black (ur personal opinion) and lower the max. That max will look sick as ****.

you're in the wrong section. There's a whole "wheel and tire" subforum for this.

But it will fit, so long as the other specs aren't ridiculous, like 20x10.5 or something.

Mine looks just like "reality sucks" just minus the body kit. Someone has great taste for the 4th gen maxima. You should paint ur brake calipers and put the nissan decal on. But another sick *** max. Great taste

18 x 18.75 will not fit. They are too wide.
18 x 8.75 with +35 offset will fit.

I've never heard of a rim being 8.75, it's either 8, 8.5, or 9 inches in width usually, not saying it isn't possible...just unusual.

I am currently running 17"x8" +30 all the way around and they fit nicely over my Z32 brake upgrade, if you are even considering doing this upgrade to your brakes, make sure you get a wheel that has plenty of spoke clearance, unless you want to invest more money into rims down the road to get ones that will clear.

The rears are never a problem since they sit so horribly far in on our cars, I am running a 15mm Eibach hubcentric spacer with longer studs to get the rear to sit right, even with the +30 offset.

*update* just punched in your specs and saw what wheels you are talking about, they look good and you won't have to worry about clearance with those...looks like they weigh about 22.5 lbs each.

Those should be fine.

I have 19x8.5 +30 and 19x10 +32 and it is pretty flush. I have thought about putting small spacers on mine to make it poke very slightly. The only thing I did was roll the lips on my fenders and quarters flat.

Here's some pics for reference of mine.
