Man I love the rims. They look superb on dark cars. I have a '99 sherwood green, and I would love to find rims that come in that color w/out the powdercoating... I'm positive the coating would get f|_|cked up within a couple weeks on my car.

That's the rims I was planning to get for a long time, but have to get a max first

Reading the replies, and other posts, about black rims... most don't like them, but that's coming from guys with 18's+, chromes, and overall tacky cop magnets.

Look's very clean, except I would tint the rear lights to maybe 70% and tint the Maxima logo and put it back in the center to achieve a little more balance on the trunk lid.

(P.S. just as a reference, I'm a commercial designer, people pay me to tell them what looks good , and your car does )

Thanks for the props and the suggestions...good to have some professional design advice ...I like the idea of the blackened Max logo...never considered that before...darkening up the tails would look really good, but the police are pretty strict about that sort of thing around here.

Thanks

Wow, those look great! I've planned on getting a set of those this summer, but I didn't think that they'd look that good! Cool!

Re: kosei k1 anthracite pictures

Very Nice!
I was thinking about a set of those because of their weight and that nice color, but I was reluctant since I had no idea how they'd look on a green car.

What size are those? By any chance can you tell if they have significantly more clearance to the calipers compared to the 5 spoke 4th gen SE or 5th gen 16" rims? I'm trying to clear a fastbrakes kit with 16" rims.

Also, I see that you have a Yakima rack. For the life of me, I've been having a heck of a time getting mine installed. Was yours an easy install or are there a few tips to follow? Any help appreciated on this one!

bike rack

I have a Yakima rack on my black 95 SE and that POS is rusted everywhere. After spending over $500 on various parts I am not too happy. Any idea on their warranty?

17 * 7.5 with 35 mm offset

By any chance can you tell if they have significantly more clearance to the calipers compared to the 5 spoke 4th gen SE or 5th gen 16" rims? I'm trying to clear a fastbrakes kit with 16" rims.

the 35 mm offset will provide adequate clearance for a big brake kit

Also, I see that you have a Yakima rack. For the life of me, I've been having a heck of a time getting mine installed. Was yours an easy install or are there a few tips to follow? Any help appreciated on this one!

hmmm...the yak went on pretty easy, just got the right qmounts for
the Max...the guy at REI helped me put it on but it was all pretty
routing...do you have the right qmounts?
