Black on Black frenzy!
Well its been awhile since I got the black 20" rims on my black Max. I was loving driving around my city getting all the attention with my car. Everyday I get compliments, everyday I get stares and thumbs ups! I loved being different and having the feeling that Ive got the privelage to drive a rare looking ride. So the other day Im driving home and guess what I see coming the other way? Wow its another black 6th gen with the same grill, and wait, oh my gosh...looks like the same rims!!! Holy crap I cant believe it! I tell my good friend about it (who, by the way, works at a rim shop that I bought my rims from). He says that a few customers have come in with black Maxs, asking about my Max, and wanting to do the same. I dont know. Im sorry for the vent,but I think I want to go for a new scheme now. I just dont feel original anymore! I cant wait for the day that I pull up next to the Max that looks exactly like mine!!!

I tell you the truth, I was going to go with a black max with black rims also, before I seened your car... but the one the dealer had chrome five spoke rims, no likie. so I picked silver...
but I like you're car, hopefully you keep them or get some other hot rims....

I'm actually curious what bronze volks would look like on a black max. Oynx is the color I plan on going with for my max so I've been thinking about different rim combinations as it's the one thing I would mod. Well besides a car computer.

DvS, thought you new the consequences of stardom? A custom plate of sorts, darker tint (if not done by imitators) or something seems necessary. Do you dare invite them to the Org?
I know how you feel though, I was rolling pretty until I saw an Onyx Max last year in my home town area. They have the the elipical (sp.) grille though and had NJ plates. [so wtf are they still doing around here?]
but hey, which is worse: imitators or haters?

Mike33: I am with you. I wonder what bornze 5zigen rims or any bronze rims would look like on an Onyx. I have a 2005 Onyx so if u have photoshop or can score a pic of bronze rims on a black max, lemme know

The style of rims you have is pretty popular now and dark cars seem to be drawn towards the black out rim style. I know it sucks you want to be different, but that is hard to do with the Maxima now a days.....there is not many options out there....we all have very few grill options, lots of Trendz grills, or some like mine. I changed my interior to silver carbon....but lots will change their interior soon to different stuff......not many stuff for the Max again. I got my Spirited Bronze because it was there, no black SE on the lot, but if I had a black SE...would go with the black rims, dark tint, and maybe tinted tails.....you get the picture. Again, there is really not much out there for the 6th gen so far so expect some emulation. Take it as a show of flattery.

I am just stoked to have a Maxima period. At least we aren't on G35.org, might as well be Accord.org the way I see those G35's around here.
I am lucky (or unlucky) to see one Maxima on the road every day...
I did see a silver Max lowered with 20's a couple of weeks ago, I will admit I was bummed but it's inevitable.
By the way I was at the BMW dealership today to pick up a friend and the Max drew a quite a few lookie loos...he he he suckers I saved $20,000!!!!!

ehhh....its alright. Maybe with different rims. I really dont like the choice of rims. Try making it look a little lower too. I would do the photoshop but I dont have the program. Thanks.
Here ya go, the only good pic I could find. Theyre Volk Racing TE37 rims if u wanna find another pic somewhere.

[QUOTE=DvSMAXXX04]Heres a pic of a hot *** black G35 with bronze rims. Lovin the rims. Just dont know what rims they are.
QUOTE]
those look like they are volks racing rims. I'm at work with 56k vconnection right now so not goign to search the internet but I believe SF is the model could be wrong but they def look like volk rims.
The TE37 is one I would consider getting on my max. There is a nother model of volks I would look at to though along with RH C4.
