well damn. Chit.
Well I am gettin 22's. Well looks like its not gonna be on the MAX.
So I guess the 96 Eddie Bauer Exploder will get them instead. I am sure the wife will be happy. Hell..... maybe I can spoil her.. and then gets my stuff on the MAX. If so... I'll shop for 20's and see what I think would look sweet??


OH BTW... if I go 20"s,,, would I have to lower to car much at all??

Search for the guy who has 21" rims. Also, you should be able to fit 20's with the right tires. Several members have done it.

Do you mean in real life? If not I've seen 26" on a Land Cruiser. It was in the Off Topic forum a few months back.

No 22's will not fit on a maxima. The biggest you can go is a 21 and the tire size needs to be 245/35-21. The only other choice in 21" tire size is 255/35-21 and that doesn't fit because of the spring cup in the front of the car. You want 22's get a truck to put them on.

If you can show me a picture of those 23's on that caprice, because that sounds highly unbelieveable.

NO it was at a car show, and he was riding around.. It looked like a truck and the tires were almost touching the inner fender wall.
