I don't think your flamin me. I will definitely post pics when they are on. I should get them in 7-10 business days. I can't wait. As soon as I get them on, I am going to roast two of the crap tires that I have now, and keep the other two for spares.

Coolio... can't wait to see em... I'm looking for some (affordable) gunmetal rims with a silver lip too... but something with less spokes... the one you got is a little too busy for my liking...

I got the tire upgrade, so I spent an extra 200 bucks with the upgrade and mounting them. So total was $799. What is cool is that shipping is free.

Dumb question: was the $799 for all four or just one?

I swear that link said $599/ea, I hope I am mistaken. They do look good though

Edit.. I didn't look in the description that it was a package

i love them, but is your car dropped. I am sure it will look odd since the tire will be smaller(lo pro) I assume. But nice rims dude I love that bbs look of them.

Yes... when it said 599 for each, it meant for each package of 4 rims and 4 tires.

Originally, I had bought a different pair of rims from them because a sales rep told me that the limiteds wouldn't fit on my max. He didn't say that all I needed was a tire upgrade. After I bought them, the manager called me to confirm the order and when he learned that I had a maxima, he told me that the wheels for the size I needed were on backorder and I would have to get a tire upgrade. So he asked me if I liked the limiteds and I told him that a sales rep told me that they wouldn't fit my car. He was pissed. He told me that they were basically stupid and they didn't know what the hell they were talking about. He told me that they will fit and that because they messed up, they would give the the tire upgrade to 225's instead of 205's for 100 dollars less than their price so I spent 799 total on the wheels and tires, getting them mounted, and a size upgrade. Not bad.

Not my style, but for $800 bones, I'll have to look at getting a set of rims /tires when I wear out my Pilots!

not bad. i personaly don't really like the rims that have those little screw head looking things all around but gunmetal with a silver lip would look pretty sweet on a black max.
