I really like those wheels. They look good on your Max. They look good on any Max I've seen them on. Your Max looks good.

Nice!

I've read a couple of people say that 245's are too wide for the front. Have you noticed any rubbing issues?

Looks freakin' sweet, though!!

Thanks guys. The 245's are fine for the front, no rubbing at all, one thing is i might get 235's toyos for the front because they are much lighter, cause right now my car is a lot slower and im sure its because of the tires.

Best place to get the wheels if you want cheap is probably ebay, if new i dont think anywhere else besides tirerack.

And no matter what anyone says about how many of them there are, they still look orgasmic on ANY maxima with ANY mods.

o thats cool, well i got them through ebay, had a big problem cause UPS lost one of them and it took them 2 weeks to find the wheel, ....painful process.

The ride is great, very comfortable and the Car handles crazy, ....at the end of 53, the lake cook exit, where you have to exit right in order to go on lake cook to arlington heights road, i take that exit at 70 and no problem, little sqweel. (if you know what im talking about) and thats on stock struts and progress springs, im sure i can go faster when i get new illuminas....

Yeah I know exactly what your talking about heh :P Are you using seperate Winter tires? Because the stock tires I have right now are completely dead and won't last. So if I get rims and tires... can I use them during the Chicago winter? :O I can, but would rather not buy winter wheels, what do you think?
