I think those wheels would look nice on the maxima. Im not really one for many chrome wheels so these are nice. I do like some chrome wheels though.

Those would look nice IMO, just expect a fairly significant loss in acceleration, they probably weight a ton. Ballers should just be crusing anyways, no need to be speeding by. They would be pretty sick in chrome on a black or maybe white color max, maybe some air bags for the full effect.

Noooooooo!!!!

Those rims are nice but soft. I had a set on my G20 & within the first week, i dented one on a small pothole going about 20mph. I paid $95 to fix & within the next 4 months, I dented 2 more. I sold them. They bring out your ride but they dent fairly easy.

The tires have a lot to do with it, only thing is, you would probably want to recalibrate your speedometer, cause it'll be off quite a bit if you were to get something like 255/45/20 or whatever.

Binno=cheapo. Not good quality wheels. With 20s and a thin tire, u got to watch out, they will bend easily and the hassle u have with them as well as paying to fix them, u might as well get some good **** on sale or something.

Gettins makes something similar in that size, 20s chrome run about 3k I think. Work Eqips makes a nice 5 spoke too.

man yeah! The Binno's are cheap. Made in Brazil. I had some yokohamas & my boy has the same set of yokohamas on his 18's & he's never bent a wheel. I was so p*ssed. I bent a wheel the first week.

That looks good. Kinda looks chopped and dropped though. Ive seen other 20s on some 04s and the wheels gap was worse than this.

My uncle works at a spring/lowering shop. He is the guy who orders the stock and was able to get me some Eibach springs. 2" drop in front / .8" in back.

Well thats sweet. Hows the ride with the stock shocks and on 20s? I figured it would be really rough.

The ride is not to bad at all. It can get a little rough/bouncey on bumpy roads, but not at all like cutting or heat the stock springs. I'll most likey buy the struts from eibach when they become available.

With stock springs, I could hardly feel the difference in the road. I would imagine it would be more noticable coming from SL 17's with larger profile tires.
