I'm so happy I can cry. They look so beautiful...some pics:




I weighed them, and they came out to a superb 22lbs -- on both of our digital scales, and standard.

 

Welcome to the club brother! Are those from Nissan, or aftermarket? (I don't see the Nissan center caps)

How much/where did u get them from?

 

Isnt that the same weight as the normal 17's just differnent finish?

 

they look good. how many lbs. does stock rims weigh?

is 22lbs light compared to stock rims?

 

ok i see... they look like stock rims just dipped in a finish

 

These are Nissan rims with an aftermarket finish, basically. I have a guarantee on them for a full year. And yes, 22lbs is light. Most have claimed that the 6-spoke 17s weigh 25-28lbs. That's apparently not the case if these rims are any indication. When the OEMs come off, I will weigh them.

 

Congrats! And, nice carpet

 

2001 SE 17"ers supposedly weigh in at 23lbs. 14.6oz.....

 

Yeah. I guess we'll see when I weigh them on Friday. =)

SEMY2k2GO: Thanks. :P

 

Nice I always wondered what the stocks weigh.

 

Nice. I'm thinking to upgrade my to G35C 18s.

 

where did you get those? and that looks like a rug to me...

 

those look like the knock offs they sell on ebay.

anyone buy the knock offs, how is the quality? i was thinkin on buying some of the 04/05 max se wheels off there.

 

I did get them on eBay. But they aren't exactly knock offs. The rims are factory Nissan, but the finish is done elsewhere.

 

not fair...those look so nice on glacier pearl maxes! (mine) are these the ones that had about 4 auctions on ebay and were 500 bucks for the set? i saw those and was wondering about them...if they are they sure do look good


<< look, i finally donated

 

has anyone tride rimtrader.com? or whatever that banner is that i sometimes i see here on the org.

 

pics arent showing up...

 

Why spend the money to get a different color version of the same wheel? I'm not saying it's not good looking but I don't understand the reasons behind it...

 

XGaSpAcHo, when i checked it out the prices were horrible. I dunno, didnt seem worth it to me.


arnold, sweet! whats up with the center caps? is it a replica or?

 

Hah, I was buggin for the center caps and had no idea they'd provide me with a set of blanks. The auction said that center caps weren't included. Hahaha. Anyways, I'm very happy with the rims and hope to have them on this Friday. Stay tuned for pics!

 

Those rims looks strangely familiar... Enjoy the new set.

 

Haha. Thanks! =D

 

hey arnold, I sent out your center caps today so I guess syou'll have an estra set!

 

The reason for me would be the finish looks better than the painted SE rims that came on my car. I would prefer the bright finish.

 

nice upgrade dude, i think these style wheels look better then the 2k/2k1 17's

you gave up on hte Z rims?

 

Thanks, man! I'll be using your set without a doubt. But I still hope to find a set of real Nissan caps. :P

 

I didn't spend money on them. I sold my original rims to an Org member, and used the money from that to purchase these. I like to think of it as a $60 upgrade. =)


Edit: Kevin, yep gave up on them. I figured I didn't want to do something drastically different. I thought about my options when it dawned on me...the 2k3 TE rims! I always thought they were the hottest thing since sliced bread - so I looked around eBay and found them.

 

very nice....... even though these are my winter rims, i still like them as much as my new rims.

 

They look good, I always wanted a finish on mine when the 20th AE SE has them, I want it on mine. How much does it cost.

 

good choice, i was thinking about doing the same thing until i came accross the Z rims.

 

A little over 500 eBay.

 

they look nice
