I got these new Wheels made my ETX which are made my Enkei. Check them out, they make my Black Max SE look hot as $hit.

See I would go to a 18" but did not want to shell out anymore cash since I got my wheels for only $630 for the whole set and $500 for the tires. I dont want 19", I live in DC and the potholes there would destroy them. The screwed up my 16s on my Millenia.

Yes they all come with standard 7" wide wheels, whether you got the 16" or 17" wheels.

I am pretty sure that the 16" wheels 16x6.5, not 16x7. The SE 17" are 7 inches wide.

Because most cars are around 6.5-7.5" There is not much difference from a 6.5" to a 7". I mean only a 1/2" larger. But then again it is also dependant upon the tire width.

Momo's for Me

Make sure you look at hubcentric rims as the Maxima needs these. If not, you will never balance them correctly. I went with Momo's as they came w/ hubcentric rings and are weighted to tighter tolerances then some manufacturers. They feel like they came on the car, and look great to boot.
