Another Maxima with Evo5s

Well, I made that leap and just order 18" Mille Miglia Evo5s and Yokohama AVS ES100s from Tirerack. I know, I know, I'm a copycat, but the SSR Competitions SML wheels only came in 17" and they're hella expensive as were the O.Z. Cronos Evolutions I was considering. So I got the Evos because they DO look really nice on the Maxima at a decent price.

I'll probably be selling my OEM 17" 2002 SE wheels with only 15K miles on them(75%-80% thread left on them) which I'll post in the F/S forum eventually.

The funny thing is that I made my decision after watching that kick-a$$ special called "Rides" on the History Channel.

Once again....I HATE YOU GUYS! for making me into a modder.

Ha. Who cares who else has them. I think they're the best looking wheels out there for maximas.

I saw that rides special too, foose makes some bada$$ wheels and cars. The one he made for Titus was just amazing.

Right? Or at least a Nissan emblem

I wanted a wheel with a slight lip which the Competitions and O.Z.s have, but I think I made the right choice. Anyways all the Maximas around here are running stock so I'll look original for a while at least

If you haven't done so already please drop your ride before you put them on. 18's+ look horrible on a 5th gen that is at stock height.

Don't generalize your opinion. Look at my homepage, and you'll see that it doesn't look that bad, and especially NOT worse than stock if you get the right tire size. Even though I still wanna drop my car, but those damn roads around here...
Peace
