Finally...

I finally joined you guys in the 20" clique. Heres a couple pic Ive taken so far...

Its kinda different with new rims. Ive gotten so used to my others it just hasent set in I guess. I do however love the 3" lip Ive got now. My others were pretty much flush with the tire and they just looked so much bigger than these. What do you guys think?

Another thing about these is they weight in at 61 pounds. Thats only 6 pounds more than my stock 18's.

Nice Lip! I always liked rims with lips but, the lips do make them look like a smaller rim! I had 19's with a crazy lip before but, I'd always think that they looked too small.

Anyway, nice rims!

Looks good. I like the pattern and the lip is always a nice touch. Hopefully if all goes well I'll be putting something like that on my ride

Hotness...what did the pkg cost ya? $3000? Am I rude to be asking?

How is the ride? Does the stock SE rim really weigh 55lbs?! I like bling...dont like performance loss...Does everyone think that 18" is the way to go if performance and handling are of prime concern? Or is it all about the lightest rim, Given the same exact size rims. Are BBS so rare and expensive because they make 20" that weigh 19Lbs? I wonder what that would do for the maxima.

Thanks guys... Their starting to grow on me finally. As to what they cost I paid 1500.00 mounted and balanced fresh out of the boxes. My old rims were 19" Axis Hagens and I was runnin 255/40/19 kuhmos. I met a guy yesterday who pulled over because he saw my car in a parking lot and sold him my old rims the next morning. Ive actually been arguing with a few 5th gen guys on here because they swore up and down those tires wouldnt work on a 2000 max

Check it out...

Im glad I didnt have to ship them somewhere... this way I'll still get to see them choppin around town. Oh yeah, the stock 18 SE rims weigh in at 55.4 pounds a piece, I also sold those last tuesday to a 5th gen in Baltimore. Thanks for the comps guys, Ive got more to show shortly

One more thing, on the last pic I posted you can really see the color in my tint. Do you guys think I should go back to black or keep this? With my other rims I thought it looked good... With these im not so sure

Thats the everyday price... unless he has to order them. You should see this guys H2 on 27's. The funny thing is the tires say 22's. I guess nitto cuts tires and rebeads them..? Thats what he says... I measured the rim their 27's.

Im gonna get some pics and show you guys this ****. It will blow your mind.. sorry to ramble.. yep 1500.00

I went the same route as KC as far as price, my wheels look good but they are actually very inexpensive...I've had them on for 10 months with no problems whatsoever...

Car looks great. Congrats. About the 27" wheel, the tire actually is a 22 and the lip of the rim in higher. Hard to explain, but the ride qualinty is better that way. Just picture the hub of the wheel is 22 inch and the outside part of the wheel is the 27..

Classy, done well. Great pick! The wrong rim can make a car look so cheap. Those are beautiful. I'll be looking for a set next spring. Those are on the list.

KC, those rims look HOT~~

I don't know about you guys, but it seems like my dubs are looking smaller and smaller everyday... It's been almost 2 years with my dubs... Maybe it's time to go bigger???

Not~~ I'm happy with dubs!! Once again, congrats!!

Yep...Sub 20lb twenties exist...think about performance...theres gotta be a benifit to this. Only problem is the price is very high..BBS. Weight is the 1st thing Im considering..I wanna make it as easy for my max to adjust to the change as possible.
