Don't. My pops has some sittin in the garage off his.. They're nice but wayy too large spoked to look good on a 6th gen imo.

Go custom, or paint yours gloss black. I think that'd look good.

the 20" wheels will slow down the max alot in acceleration but look good when at a stop light..

I don't think weight is a factor when you want to buy huge rims such as 20s

You can buy 20 inch wheels that aren't even close to 41 lbs.

Use the search function.

There's probably 50+ threads going back to at least 2005 on the subject.

Thats my blue max pictured a few posts above the black altima. I had the fx hypersilvers n got a lot of compliments but then they cracked so I figured let me get the chrome ones to switch it up, ended up finding a set of vogues that look identical at a caddi dealer. Never rubbed but I've seen 22's on the sixth gen so I guess it was never going to be an issue.

The fx rims add a nice touch, not too much bling and not too boring.
