22 inch rims

does anybody know a site that sells 22 inch rims that have a 5x114.3 bolt pattern? or do 22 inch rims even exist with that bolt pattern?

They do with Spinners like Davins, but the offset will never be for a FWD car. More geared towards the big Benz style cars, like the Lexus GS/LS cars.

I dont think a car would clear a 22. Just barely clears a 20.

I know a 21 inch wheel has been done before. I'm not sure who did it. I know some guys rolling on anything more than DUBS have to have the fenders rolled, and sometimes even undercarriage mods to clear the wheel size. Remember that the bigger the wheel, the bigger the width of the tire , that you can choose from. I'm assuming you are trying to put it in the Max. Yes, if possible it would look OBSCENE. But can it be done, .... I've only seen a Jag XJS with 22's....

Damn 22" rims on a Maxima I would love to see that! I think 20" are as big as you should go though but that is my opinion. I ain't trying to hate but 22" just don't go with the Maxima image IMO.

Ditto. Anything over 20" is worthy of being called G-H-E-T-T-O

Yeah I know about the 21"s too, but 22"s will not fit...If you take and cut out the inside fender then it will and you can roll old school style where the wheel fits up in...But damn don't.

i would leave the 21+ inch rims to SUVs and Trucks which look badass with them IMO. I thought the maxima should ride on 19s or 18s but after seeing the pics in your sig, i'd include 20s in that too.

Dagg... 22's.. I'd like to see pics when you get them.. I say get them as big as you want. It's your car do with it as you please. But once you install them tell us how you got them to fit without rubbing..

In a word...ughh. How 'bout a four-foot

aluminum wing to go with the 22-inchers? Fuzzy dice from the mirror? How 'bout a wood, five-section panoramic mirror that forces u to take the sun visors off? Hydraulic bouncers, maybe? Viper-like dual side exhausts?
eeegads

i'm not saying that he isn't going to use them for the maxima, but at least wait till he replies where he's going to use them before going off on the dude. he was just asking a question.

True. I've seen 3 G35's in Phoenix with 20's or bigger.

hate all you want. first of all it was just a ? to those who had an educated answer. just because i'm not trying to run 13's like everyone else on this site (which is fine and totally up to them), doesnt mean you have to respond that way. maybe if you had air ride suspension you'd be gittin 22's too! my car wouldn't look like a BOAT like yours would with 22's. i could drop my car to 3" inches off the ground in less than a second.

Look at their homepages. They devote 2 pages to bulbs that cost 5.00 and make that a mod. Or a 100.00 intake.. just screw them, do what you want.... Big Rims == Real players !

if you like them I'm glad you could get them but they're not my taste. If I were to get new rims (mine are stock and I have better uses for $1k) they'd look something like this:

big like a GS??? the maxima is bigger than a GS400...check your numbers...but no where near as good...mind you...I'd take a GS400/430 over a maxima any day...but it's barely smaller.
