Not like the silver painted wheels that come standard. Some guys here have chromed their OEM wheels, but that, of course, is an aftermarket thing. The only chrome 18"s that come with the Max are these 5 spoke wheels:



Maybe that will change for '07...

wrong, nissan has to sets of OEM chrome wheels out, when are the 5 spokes which i have, and the other set resemble the stock se wheels dipped. It is not an aftermarket thing...goto parts and look at the catolog.

I am 99% sure that chrome OEM 6 spoke rims are available. I have seen them many times on cars. I have seen them on EBay too and I am not talking about the chrome exchage B.S., I would definately keep looking into it if you want them that bad. Did you ask the dealership directly??

why would you want to spend that much on factory chrome wheels when the huge aftermaket wheel industry can provide you with way better style for an equal cost.

OEM chrome is chrome DIPPED. They are made like absolute crap and if you dont take care of them through the winter have fun looking at them the following summer.

and like is said there are 2 different sets. One set is the set i have which is a five spoke, and the other resemble the sl wheels slightly. ( i know last post i put SE, my mistake)

BOTH ARE DIPPED.
