Rim Fitment

Hey guys, I found some Mustang Bullitt rims for super cheap! And I think they would look awesome on a fifth gen but I don't think the fitment will work out.
If I researched this correctly our stock 17inch SE rims are 17x7. And these mustang rims are 17x10. Therefore I think they'd be poking massive! Any suggestions/thoughts?

Those rims are meant for muscle cars and thats about it. Never should they go on a Maxima

If it's a good deal buy it and re-sell it and buy yourself some thinner rims. 10" wide is too wide, especially on a 5thgen nissan. You'll definitely have turning issues, and rubbing.

pretty sure those stang rims are 30 mm offset....and with a 10 inch rim Im not sure if you're lowered or anything but chances are you might rub...depending on tire obv

this. Nothing can be said without offsets, that's what makes the rim sit in differnt places

10" is big for any lowered maxima regardless of the offset. You can count on some hurdles if it's not calculated very, very well before hand.
Even at stock height, you will have clearance issues on the inside
