Not that you need more opinions but on the MMR's.
And a definate no on the Foose ones.

IMO the 5 spoke MRR's with the sunken look are INSANE...i think they are the best of all the ones you posted.....IMO the foose wheels are FTMFL...lol

Yeah... I've pretty much already made up my mind but was more so tossing up the idea of those. For the most part though it was between the 5Zigen's and the MRR's. The Maya wheels fit somewhere in between.

Thanks peeps. Be easy.

Yeah... this kid had actually posted these up for sale in the wheels and tires section. Hopefully he'll / she'll come through and post up some pics.

The ones he had were the silver ones, extremely nice rims. I like the look of the RH5's though.

You might as well keep those Axis wheels... looks 100x better then every other wheel that you just posted
Personally, the stock 6 spoke wheels are fine by me. Just like with every other car I have owned, I'd rather invest in performance parts before fancy wheels.

i'm not talking about stock wheels... i'm talking about after market wheels that the orgers tend to buy.

Yeah, I understood that, I've seen some hideous wheels on too many Maximas (and other cars), but I also don't see buying even really good looking $200 each wheels if I don't have headers.

When I had my '77 Cutlass, I did all the engine stuff before I even replaced the whitewall tires (it had the Olds 15 x 7 rally wheels) so when I raced a then new 1984 Corvette and beat it, Mr. Corvette lost to a car with whitewalls.

Honestly, I wish I had them on the car when I swapped in a 455, that would have been even funnier.

I was gonna be the 1st to have those MRR wheels but i changed my mind and decided to change because i wanted a lip instead. superbuytires comes in handy. I'd say go with the Bullet style rims because it matches the look, and they look aggressive. the MRR's are nice but your car's appearence is totally opposite of those style rims. give either one a shot though

wheels with rivets that don't need them are hella gay. don't put them on your car. don't be a poser.

Like the current rims you have better. A car to pull off the rims you listed need to be a little more square. Also, not feeling the riveted look.

I am... I don't think it would be hard to pull off these rims but I'm liking the MRR's more. The look of the car is going to changed up a lot so I'm not really worried about it.
I am still tossing up some other ones too so who knows. Regardless though it's going to be sick.

Rivets... I've got rivets on my current rims and they serve no purpose at all. I wish they did actually allow me to remove the rim from the lip... It would make things a lot easier when I had them painted.

I'll post up pics when she is completed.

Could you post pics when the rims are on? My max is the same color as yours, I'd like to see what they look like on it.

im not a fan of rims with the holes on the edges but in the end its ur $ and u should get whatever makes you happy eh?

every1's max should be a reflection of their presonality and thats what makes them unique and awesome.

staggered wheels on a fwd is kinda odd, but after all, it's your car regardless

love how you all bag on guys with big rims. dont get me wrong i love my max great car. im running 20 momo rims. if i was that worried about weight and power i wouldnt waste my money on building the max. id get a mustang, evo, sti, whatever, put half the money and smoke most if not all maximas. my max is the cheaper version of a vip car (gs, infiniti m- series) that ill never afford. i actually think those foose would look pretty good
