Finally Got My Replacement 20's!!!

Well I finally got my wheels, after all the drama.
See this thread if you want the whole story:
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=300813

So I ended up going with chrome, I was against the chrome route until they put these wheels on my car just to see how they looked... I was sold!!!
I'll post better pics with a clean car and after the stereo install this weekend.





Check the car domain link at the bottom for more pics...

Why is it that almost every max on 20's on cardomain, has the same rim? Or is it just me??

If you read the thread link I attached you'll see what happened to my other wheels. I wish I had them still as well but they don't make them anymore and nobody makes a good mesh wheel in 20" (there's a few but they are bank!!)
It was hard to decide on a new wheel but I'm stoked now....

KCmaxx, I think you are seeing the chrome chrome chrome everywhere and it seems to make alot of the wheels look alike. Where you went with more of a basic 5 spoke I wanted something that looked a bit less stock, that's why I like my mesh wheels before but....
Also I think the choices on 20" for our cars tends to be a bit limited. If we all went 19's the possibilites would be endless....

Love the new rims man! Definitely look better than your old ones. By the way, someone mentioned riding on 20's is much rougher and theres danger in damaging the rim & the car? You ever have any problems like this? Also, if you dont mind me asking, what are your plans for a new stereo?

Thanks for the compliment. It is a bit rougher because you have a lot less tire to absorb the road, you also hear the road a lot more below you. You can damage the rim pretty easily from what I've read, it seems that a lot of guys on the East Coast stay away from 20's based on how much and where they drive if there are too many pot holes, this seems to be the biggest culpret of a bent wheel. I've had no problems at all I've had wheels since Nov.

As for the stereo, I got the Metra dash kit and am installing a Clarion 935VRX (7 inch pop out screen) rear view camera and possibly another amp if I need to replace the stock bose speakers. We're going to see how they sound first. (I already have one amp running 2 10's)
