The rims are too busy for my taste but if you like them get 'em. But, if you are not dropped you'll look like you are driving a 4x4.

I dunno, I think 20's are way to heavy and too gaudy for my tastes. If you like em, get em. Personally I would take the money for those rims and invest in suspension first.

if those were black with a polished lip, they would look awesome...
just not on a maxima. our cars are just not big enough for a wheel like that in that size. 300C, 7 series, Phaeton, E class and bigger would look good with those, but our cars just dont look right with larger than 19s on them. then 1" does make a difference. the ONE exception i have seen are the wheels on Rob Vam Dams car, and its mainly because they just dont look like 20s. these wheels look like they are 20s. get some nice 19s, youll still have some tire to roll around on, but not much. 19 is perfect IMO, others will tell you 18.

I agree, 19's would be the largest I'd go on a maxima. 20's seem oversized.

go ahead, u know u want to
it will look good but it depends what type of rims though. Like some HRE's or something...But I'd say 18's or 19's will look good on the 5 gen...4th and 6 gens look better with 20's

Man why would all of you rip on someones personal taste. I think those 20's would look nice on a silver max. A friend of mine used to have a black 5th generation on 20's and it looked real clean. I say if you want it get there is nothing better than driving in your car knowing everyones looking at your twanks!

i believe that if i went with a 20" chrome or shiney wheel, it would TOTALLY change the look of my car, for the worse. like everyone said, its his personal taste, and as long as the car makes YOU happy, thats whats important, but hes asking us from experience based on what we have seen at meets and shows and whatever, and 20s just dont work on our cars.

Anyway, personally I would never put 20's on my car. I like having some tire between me and the road.
BTW Media, your avatar cracks me the fukc up!

Save some money and go with 19's. 20's look way to busy on a Maxima, unless its an 04-up

my friend ryan had 20's on his 5th gen and they looked good for a few reasons. 1. he had a black max and HID heads/fogs so the chrome wheels looked like they would on a nice lexus. 2. the wheels were alot better looking than the ones ur thinking about so it was much classier 3. that was about all he did so it wasnt overdone and remained classy because he wasnt about turning his car into a track/race car.
With that all said, he got rid of his 20's cause he hated the ride and they were way too heavy, he now runs the '04 18's. I ran 19's with my drop but for the summer will be downgrading to 18's because of the ride. If you really want those rims, go right ahead and buy them but I think in the long run you would regret it for the ride and for the looks. Id rather drive my sterling mist off a cliff before i put chrome on it. just alittle more info mixed in with my $.02 for ya.

Gentlemen...
I present you with the first lifted '00 Maxima SE riding on BFG All Terrain TA's.
It may be bad.... but at least it's really bad!
(I agree about the 18"s Go too much bigger and you loose too much off the bottom end anyhow...)
