The Best Wheels I've ever seen...!

for my Maxima perhaps. I'm very picky when it comes to things that change the look of a car. Most wheels on the market today are just average. But these wheels really caught my eye. And yes they will fit on a Maxima. They make a 18*8.5 version. Hopefully they don't stick out of the wheel well.
The bad news...they're $900 per wheels.

I would rather have some of the Skyline magnesium(sp) wheels or a set of Fiske wheels.

HREs are maaad expensive rims

2 wheels i have considered are the:

18x9 @ 700 a pop: OZ superlegerra III modular rims, they looked awsome on the m5 demo car

18x9 @ 3000 a set: 5 ziggen 5 ZR Copse

Sounds like you guys think they're just average. It's just my luck though, I find some wheels that I like and they're 900 a piece.

The thing I like about the wheel is the aggressiveness. It looks race inspired. I really don't like "luxury" type wheels on a Maxima.

The HRE's don't look as good and they're more expensive. I wouldn't compair these wheels with most mass produced wheels. These are limited RX-7 wheels by RE-Amemiya. Ok Ok they look similar to some wheels.

Does anyone have pics of wheels that look better?

The EVO's look like the OEM GLE wheels.

It does feel good to have such a large selection though. My SHO had no selections.

Only bigger...
I love the O.Z Superleggras, probably cause the first time I saw them they were on a Lancer Evolution 5 . But hey to each his own, maybe they're the best rims you've seen but frankly the Volk GT-Ns have a special place in my heart.

It may be too deep dish but those wheels look decent.

Those are sweet looking deep dish rims....but $900 each?

That is way too much $$$ to spend on rims.....but if you have the pockets then go for it.
