I kinda like them. I like the lip If I had to do it again I wouldnt get chrome but something like that. I never heard anything about ADR but while looking for rims have seen that name around alot.

 

Are you trying to torture yourself? First off your car will be slower...second if you hit a pot hole in these you will have a sore back....35 is way to narrow a tire for the Max. Stick with 18" ... I was even thinking of going to a 17 but 18 is OK...check out Konig's new line up...I think that you will find a better and cooler black Rim...The Konigs are quality...you could also check out the new FAST line or even the new SPINS line...all within your budget...then if you need tires...slap on a set of Falkens ($140 ea) or Continental Extremes ($140) or even Toyo Proxes 4 with a rebate! About the same...Even the General Tire Exclaim UHP for about $100 ea...You will thank me.

 

I used this tire calculator to figure of the difference of tires compared to stock.

It says you want to stay within a 3% variance and with the 235/35/19 you"ll be at a 4.54% difference compared to a 245/45/18 stock tire.

 

I had 3 sets of wheels on my black 04 max and black/polished lip was my very first set. That was the best combo by far. The 2nd/3rd set was 20" chromes and 22" chromes, I didnt like the chromes too much, and they were heavy. I say go for the black on black combo if thats what you like, its such a clean and simple look.

 

The ebay wheel has a bolt pattern of 5x108 while we have 5x114.3. Will that work in our Maxima?

What I have heard about ADR is that it is analogous to Hyundai in the car market. That is, it is inexpensive but makes not-so-bad wheels.

 

Well I don't know about the bolt pattern..I was just seeing what everyone thought about the wheel style.

 

FYI we use a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and I would advise an 8 inch width with a 35-40 offset (ET). If your going 19's the best size to go would be 245/40/19, many say this is the best combo for looks while keeping some comfort.... though usually when priced out come out more expensive then the same set in 20 inch. I personally run 20x8.5 38 offset with 245/35/20's love the looks but need to drive much more carefully especially in NYC. I have heard OK things about ADR, if you trying to stay on a budget they are better then other off-brands.

 

Nah man.... not feeling it......

 

ugs man... u get what u pay for... in this case... cheap stuff... not feeling it either .
