Rim Suggestions for New Owner?
Hi everyone,
So I'm new here, this is actually my first post. I just purchased a 2008 SE and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a nice set of rims.
I'm not looking for anything really flashy. I like a nice, classic look that stands out without being obnoxious. I'd like to stick with the silver finish.
Also if anyone has any other recommendation for mods, you're welcome to share. I am planning on window tinting as well, obviously.

Keep it in the family
There's always the option of using other Nissan and Infiniti wheels. Some look pretty sharp, and have the same centerbore and use the same centercaps.
I'm kind of a fan of most of the G35/G37 18" wheel models, but you can get forged 19" wheels as well. Besides those, the Altima and Maxima 18" split spoke models are kind of nice.
Outside of that, I'm of the opinion that most aftermarket wheels are sold based primarily on profit instead of quality, cutting corners in places like manufacturing process and finishes. Tire Rack is the only site that I can think of that shows the manufacturing process, where I'd be looking for pressure-cast wheels (or forged) instead of gravity cast. In some cases, you can't determine that from the listings, but it's better than other sites.

It depends on how much you're willing to spend and what size but here are some of my personal favorite Nissan/Infiniti factory wheels: 350z track v2, m45 sport, and 20" 5 double spoke murano
