Sorry if i posted in the wrong forum, but this thread gets accessed a lot more than the tire section. need feedback asap.

Will these fit my car?

18x8 with a 20mm offset and a bolt pattern of 5x120

Maximas run on 5x114.5 bolt pattern. As for offset, you would need an offset somewhere between 35-45mm though there have are members with rims outside these limits... The offset number indicates how far the rim lip is from the hub, the smaller the number the further away it is, so 20mm offset may be too far out of the wheel well... Overall, I don't think rims with those specs will fit a 5th gen Maxima...

no 5X120 will not fit maxima.

20mm offset might be ok if you not ganna get wider than 235mm tires.

I would think for a 2003 something along the lines of 38 or 35mm for the front and 30-35mm for the back would look pretty nice.

Or go staggered setup and mount 18x9.5 for rears or even 18x10
