Because they were just that, CHEAP! Besides they have gotten rave reviews from everyone that has installed them on their car.

I think your ride is looking off the hook, those rims suit either a white or black car can't see them on any other color. Good choice!

Sweet rims. Cheap tires. Because you live in Chicago you need "Ultra High Performance All-Season"tires like some Pirelli PZero Nero M&S.Those Wanli Tires can't be good in the witer.You'll find out, the hard way. Never go cheap on tires. One of the most important parts of your car.

Looks good, how do YOU like the tires?

They seem to get good reviews, not sure how they last yet.
(web search for wanli and forum to see comments on other cars)


Just because they are inexpensive does not mean they are cheap!

Awesome, they look great! Looking forward to putting my 19's on real soon, be in the 'club' shortly - very nice choice of wheels for your car, much better looking than your 18's IMO...

ride is good....even took it on a bumpy road just to check it out & feels good....

last night it rained hard here in chicago....i took car for spin & tires were gripping well....i tested them on braking, taking off from stop, & cornering which they did good....i also pulled a fast 180 turn (u-turn) & tires gripped well...so far cant complain

I have some questions too. I am going to purchase Maya STM in 19's but i want to know what the MAX width that a maxima can run on the rears and the fronts. So far i have seen people running 9.5" widths. Also, What is the max offset we can run. I was always curious because i had a 42mm offset on my previous set of rims, then added a 25mm spacer...bringing me technically to a 17mm rear offset rim....knowing all that, what is the MAX offset we can run on the rear and front. Anybody kno? Another question is, Can we run 350Z wheels? my drop is a Progress on KYB drop so i have a perfect 2 finger gap all the way around. if I were to get a very low offset...like 25mm-30mm, wouldnt that just mean my rims buldge a little out of the wheel well, sinec i am not tucking? Kind of like the Audi A4 look with wide rims, no?

Those are nice looking wheels. I think they look better on european cars(BMWs, MBs) and coupes(G35c, 350Z, M3) though.
