Freakin PI$$ED at Centerline !!! :(
I just got a call from the place I ordered my wheels. Centerline told them they now only make the 19 inch Dynos in a 7 inch width ! WTF !
...7.5 was narrow enough, who would buy a 19 X 7 wheel ! Back to square one ! I must have 19's.. might have to settle for something silver... Screw Centerline !

I guess I want to look " GHETTO " . Every time I go play golf, and I see a guy in a Benz or lexus or Beemer, on 19's or 20's.. Im reminded of how I feel like Im in the Ghetto in that parking lot. Take a look through the ORG. There are a lot of guys with 19's that look awesome. If you want to label it ghetto so be it. I hope I look GHETTO to you, when I get my wheels !

It's time to learn this lesson in life: size matters. 19's look better than 17's, not to mention they look better. And chrome is the ****. Yup that's pretty "ghetto."

For all you 19 inch wheel bashers out there...Have you put 19's on your max and hated the ride, or are you just assuming. My car rides fine, in fact very close to stock with my 19's so i dont understand all these "rides like crap" comments. Maybe our roads in vancouver are much better than most.
Kloogy, between those two wheels i would go with the r6. If cash is not the issue the oz superleggera 3 piece are soooooooo sweet, i wish i could have got them instead of the 1 piece forged.

Kloogy heres a thought about the Moda's. One Moda R6 18x8 45mm offset weigh 29lbs without tires!
I can only imagine that the 19's are at least 32lbs!

Kloogy- I wasn't implying for you to get the wheels I have- afterall, I DO have the exlusive Maxima.org rights to the C5s. I was just saying talk to Bryan and see if he can hook you up with a 19" wheel of your discretion.

ASU, I like your wheels, but too many Accords have them here in San Diego. I loved them when I saw them, and Bryan is giving me a great deal on 19's.... I will keep you guys posted....

Stock Ride?
I dunno about having a comfortable ride. Even though I only have 17" stock (maybe go 18" down the line), the ride is bumpy as he||. Maybe it's just that I drive too fast on local NyC streets. Gotta love the trucks that seem like tipping over cuz of da potholes.

It may be Kloogy's car, but he's representing Maximas when he rolls by with ghetto chrome 19s, and that hurts us all.
If you're looking to spend some money, get some nice Volks in 18X8.5 or even 18X9.5. They're light-weight, sporty, and best of all, non-ghetto.

Kloogy, did you check the other Centerlines out? I hope all the 19" Centerlines are not only available in 7" widths now! Were you going to put 235's on them??
